However, yesterday the need arose for me to xhost to the Sun machine

the first time using Apple's X11. I keep getting "could not display"

Apple's X11, or something wrong with my Apple X11 configuration.
I've had no problems with displaying remote applications under Apple
X11.

I'd recommend running xhost with the IP address of the remote Sun
machine, so no one can spam you with unwanted X windows. Try "xhost
INET:remote_Sun_machine" where "remote_Sun_machine" is the IP address
of the remote machine.
remote% setenv DISPLAY address_on_VPN_server
This should be "setenv DISPLAY address_to_your_Mac:0" where
"address_to_your_Mac" is your Mac's IP address. I'm not sure if using a
domain name will work, but the IP address should definitely work. Don't
forget the :0 part!
