I recently installed Apple's X11 on my MacOS10.2.3 machine. I am
trying to figure out how I can remotely log in to another machine and
run applications as if I were sitting on that machine itself. In
XDarwin I used to use the following approach:
-I would type 'xhost +'
-Then login remotely to the machine.After this I would type "setenv
DISPLAY 'my_ip_address':0.0" and everything used to work fine. But now
I get the error: "Error:Can't open display 'my_ip_address:0.0'".
Do I need to do something specific to have this capability? Any input
is greatly appreciated!
I've had this experience too. are you sure that you're using a shell
where setenv works? try set DISPLAY=:0.0
I hope I got that right?
