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?
Thankyou everyone for your responses. It turns out the problem was my
firewall settings, everything seems to be working fine now. So I have
turned my firewall On but have allowed specific ports for X11 to be
open. Thankyou, Andreas Yankopolus, for this hint.
