I have been doing the following with SLES 10, and it's worked fine, up until either beta3 or beta4. Beta4 no longer works either. On a remote Linux box I set DISPLAY=x.x.x.x:0 and launch some X app, targeted to the SLES10 box (with IP addr x.x.x.x) To enable this to work, all I've done is: 1) turn off the firewall 2) in /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager change DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER_TCP_PORT_6000_OPEN to "yes" 3) in /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager change DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS to "yes" 4) in /etc/X11/xdm/xdm-config change DisplayManager._0.authorize: to false 5) xhost + I must apologize as I don't know much about the security infrastructure of X11. I need this to still work for me. Can anyone tell me why it no longer would be working or what the steps should be to debug this problem. thanks. - Bruce Rogers
