Recover X Forwarding after broken connection

Hello,

today I logged in on a remote machine via "ssh -X ..." and started a screen session. In this i started OpenOffice.org writer by writing "oowriter". After some time the connection got lost (The network here is quite unstable). Now I logged in again via "ssh -X ...". The screen session is still attached to somewhere, but the IP-Address of the remote machine has changed since my last login. My question is: How do I get the OpenOffice.org window back on my local machine?

Greetings,
Schola

You probably can't. Unless the application you were running was designed to run in this way, losing that session ended the application. I'm certain that this is the case with OpenOffice.org.
