Yes, when I printenv on the remote machine, it shows
"DISPLAY=my.domain.name:0.0".

Hi all,
Sorry if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find it in the
archives. I am trying get a remote xhost to display locally on X11. I
know it isn't the safest way, but I have to use "xhost +<host>" (ssh
is
not enabled on the remote computer). When I telnet to the remote host
and try to open nedit for instance, I get "NEdit: Can't open display".
Thanks,
Scott Stagg
On the remote machine, did you set the DISPLAY to that of your mac?
(with:
setenv DISPLAY your.mac:0 (if you use tcsh)
DISPLAY=your.mac:0; export DISPLAY (if you use sh,ksh, or bash)
)
