Operating Systems Solaris Can't make 'set DISPLAY' to work Post 302199586 by jr_zhang on Tuesday 27th of May 2008 09:05:11 AM

Can't make 'set DISPLAY' to work

Hi,

I used exceed and putty in the past to HP server with no problem to make
'set DISPLAY' work on my desktop. However now I have Solaris 9 on Sun server 480 and I only have putty. I can't bring the X window (eg xclock, etc) to my desktop.

I tried X11Fowarding, xhost, and so on, it doesn't work. If I use 'xauth' to
add an entry into .Xauthority, how do I get hexkey? Will that work though?

Your hlep is appreciated!

Thanks!!
jr
