I am having trouble running and application on the client and having it display on the server.
The DISPLAY environment variable on the server looks something like this:
DISPLAY=/tmp/launch-DsqMKv/org.macosforge.xquartz:0
The DISPLAY environment variable on the client is:
DISPLAY=:0.0
From the server, if I want to run an app on the client and have
it display on the server, how do I specify the -display parameter?
I have connected the server to the client using: ssh -X user@client
I have tried:
client$ app-name -display /tmp/launch-DsqMKv/org.macosforge.xquartz:0
client$ app-name -display org.macosforge.xquartz:0
client$ app-name -display server:0
client$ app-name -display 192.168.1.120:0
I get the error message:
Error: Can't open display ...
I can otherwise start an application on the client from the server
that displays on the client.
