Right, the other machine needs to do MYIP:1. Stuff on the local
machine can use either localhost:1, MYIP:1, unix:1, :1, or /tmp/
launchd-XXXXX/:0 as $DISPLAY
Oh, man, you're kidding me, right? If the server comes up as display
"1" (localhost:1), it's still /tmp/launchd-XXXXX/:0? So if the value
of the environment variable DISPLAY evaluates to
/tmp/launchd-XXXXX/:0, there's no way to tell from that which
externally addressable IP port the server is listening on?
That is correct.
