Solaris 10 - DISPLAY

Hello

Im having problems on re-directing the graphics from my Solaris to my PC.

I can connect using reflections and get to the Solaris desktop, however, when I login and set the DISPLAY, I cannot get the screen to my PC.

I run the below as root
Code:
DISPLAY=192.168.0.7:0.0 ; export DISPLAY

Then when I run xclock nothing appears

Im not sure if I run the X server on the Solaris or does the Reflections run the X server on my PC.

And not sure If I have to run more commands and I have two screens attached to my PC's video card and not sure if this is causing any problems.

Any suggestions would be great

Dee
