This X11 environment seems rather fragile. I finally managed to get
X11 windows from my Solaris box to display back to my Leopard MacBook
by using ssh instead of telnet. Then I made the mistake of trying to
telnet from my MacBook to Solaris, and manually setting DISPLAY to
localhost:10.0.
When I accessed xclock It failed with the error:
X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server
shutdown).
which didn't bother me too much, I really didn't have very high hopes
that it would work.
But now I can no longer display back from my Solaris box to my
MacBook, even using ssh. I get the error
$ xclock
/tmp/launch-TvW8ES/: unknown host. (nodename nor servname provided, or
not known)
X connection to localhost:10.0 broken (explicit kill or server
shutdown).
Any suggestions on fixing the problem would be appreciated.
Rick
