I am running SUSE 9.2. I did in the standard way:
my_local_host: xhost + ssh remote_host
Use ssh -X remote_host instead.
[bash] export DISPLAY=my_local_host:0.0
Not needed anymore.
xterm
it gives me this message: xterm Xt error: Can't open display: my_local_host:0
does anyone have a solution ? did you experience this before ?
thanks,
If you try to launch the X program after a su command, you have to check if xauth propagate the authorization.
That's why you use sux instead.
For exemple you connect through ssh with user1 login
YaST2 -> crash cat /home/user1/.Xauthority > /root/.Xauthority YaST2 -> All is well
You know where is the problem
Use the sux command -not- just su. This is the "new, more secure" way of connecting to remote hosts. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge
