I had never tried this before. I typed in what you posted like so: I started an xterm and typed the first line (subbing the machine's name), then I telneted to that machine, logged in and the typed the third line. Is that right? I get this error: Error: Can't open display: h9k.com:0.0, when I try to run an X-client on the remote machine. Did I fudge, or do I need to read some info on this. Pointers to howtos, faqs, etc. requested...
