You have to do
ssh -X pepsis@zeus
pepsis@zeus's password:
Linux zeus 2.4.18-bf2.4 #1 Son Apr 14 09:53:28 CEST 2002 i686 unknown
<snip>
pepsis@zeus:~$ echo $DISPLAY
The fact that this doesn't show anything stems from the fact that
you've omitted the -X option.
[Trevor-Merritts-Computer:~] pepsis% ssh -X pepsis@zeus
pepsis@zeus's password:
Linux zeus 2.4.18-bf2.4 #1 Son Apr 14 09:53:28 CEST 2002 i686 unknown
<snip>
pepsis@zeus:~$ echo $DISPLAY
pepsis@zeus:~$ export DISPLAY=192.168.2.65:0
pepsis@zeus:~$ echo $DISPLAY
192.168.2.65:0
pepsis@zeus:~$ xclock
Error: Can't open display: 192.168.2.65:0
Even with -X parameter, there is no value in DISPLAY.
pepsis@zeus:~$ export DISPLAY=192.168.2.65:0
pepsis@zeus:~$ echo $DISPLAY
192.168.2.65:0
This and all the rest doesn't use ssh anymore. The fact that you can't
telnet to your Mac's port 6000, seems to indicate you've got the
firewall running on that machine (if you've indeed unchecked both
security checkboxes in X11's preferences and restarted X11.app
afterwards). Check the Firewall tab in the Sharing part of System
Preferences and/or type
sudo ipfw list
in Terminal/XTerm. If it says anything else than
65535 allow ip from any to any
[Trevor-Merritts-Computer:~] pepsis% sudo ipfw list
Password:
65535 allow ip from any to any
[Trevor-Merritts-Computer:~] pepsis%
the firewall is active.
thus it is not active.
