In the past I've been able to do the following
Start remote shell on remote host setting display to point back to my Mac
DISPLAY=<myip>:0.0
export DISPLAY
xterm &
and have the xterm start on my Mac. And since the display was 'at my Mac'
all X applications started in this shell displayed on my Mac as well.
With the old Xquartz (as in from Tiger) this worked perfectly. Now I get the
following error:
xrdb: Interrupted system call
xrdb: Can't open display '<myip>:0.0'
Error: Can't open display: <myip>:0.0
/usr/bin/X11/xterm Xt error: Can't open display: <myip>:0.0
Forwarding is still turned on in sshd_config (X11Forwarding yes), and
com.apple.x11 indicates that 'nolisten_tcp' is still set to 0 (false).
What have I missed?
Local X works wonderfully. Dual displays with 1.2a7.
X is running, as seen in the Dock.
