Exporting display to windows machine
hello all,

I have been googling alot about my problem and finally thought to post a question.

server: SunOS 5.1 64bit pn Sun Netra 240

i need to run an application which shows a gui tool but i believe SunOS cant show the GUI so i need to export the display to my system which is running windows 7.

Steps performed on Server

% setenv DISPLAY=172.17.51.126:0.0

now when i run the app it gives me error that
% Application initialization failed: couldn't connect to display "172.17.51.126:0.0="

Can anyone help? let me know if i missed any information?

What program are you using? Putty?
programs like mobaxterm or xming can support x11 forwarding.
If that does not work check your system to see if x11 forwarding is enabled.

Thanks for the reply,
I was using mobaxterm personal 7.1
where to check if X11 forwarding is enabled or not?
do i have to run any program on the Solaris machine so that the display is forwarded?
