yep 10.40.119.105 is my local machine

Quote:
[root@FMS etc]# xhost + 10.48.4.131
xhost: unable to open display "10.40.119.105:0.0"
If I try the method

Quote:
desktop$ ssh -X server1
server1$ ssh -X server2
server2$ xclock
I get the same error

Quote:
[root@FMS /]# export DISPLAY=10.40.119.105:0.0
[root@FMS /]# xclock
Error: Can't open display: 10.40.119.105:0.0
What is weird is that when I run xclock or xhost there is a 2-3 min wait before the error occurs

NAME
xbrlapi - X11 BrlAPI helper for Linux/Unix SYNOPSIS
xbrlapi [option ...] DESCRIPTION
xbrlapi connects to a BrlAPI server in order to provide it with the ID of the X11 window which currently has focus. It also simulates X keysyms from braille key presses (else brltty would simulate them using a qwerty keyboard). OPTIONS
Options are processed sequentially from left to right. If an option is specified more than once, or in case of a conflict, the rightmost specification takes precedence. The following options are supported: -b [host][:port] (--brlapi=) The BrlAPI server to connect to. -a string (--auth=) The BrlAPI authorization/authentication string. -d display (--display=) The X display to connect to. If not specified, the content of the DISPLAY environment variable is used. -q (--quiet) Do not write any text to the braille device. -h (--help) Print a command line usage summary and then exit. -H (--full-help) Print a thorough command line usage summary and then exit. SEE ALSO
For more details on the purpose of xbrlapi, see BrlAPI's on-line manual at [http://mielke.cc/brltty/doc/Manual-BrlAPI/Eng- lish/BrlAPI-3.html]. brltty 4.3 Oct 2011 XBRLAPI(1)
