Help with exporting DISPLAY from Linux to Windows XP
Hi Experts,
I am using Cygwin and Xming server to bring back the display from Linux to a Windows machine.
I am following the below steps :-
1. Close down all X Servers
2. Run XMing – XLaunch
3. Select Multiple
4. Select Start no clients
5. Tick No Access Control box
6. Click Finish
7. X Server starts and you should see icon in tray
8. Run Putty/SSH in Cygwin
9. SSH to server you want to connect to
10. Enter: export DISPLAY=192.168.0.1:0.0 (replace 192.168.0.1 with your IP)
11. Run dbca.
On using similar steps i can bring back the display from some Linux servers, but not from others, can you please let me know what the problem is and what things i need to verify.
I am not getting any error, some of the last lines from the message in the log states :-
winProcEstablishConnection - winInitClipboard returned.
winMultiWindowXMsgProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully opened the display.
winClipboardProc - Hello
DetectUnicodeSupport - Windows XP
winClipboardProc - DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0.0
winInitMultiWindowWM - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully opened the display.
winClipboardProc - XOpenDisplay () returned and successfully opened the display.
I did a grep X11 /etc/ssh/* the result is as following :-
/etc/ssh/ssh_config:ForwardX11 yes
grep: can't open /etc/ssh/ssh_host_dsa_key
grep: can't open /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key
/etc/ssh/sshd_config:# X11 tunneling options
/etc/ssh/sshd_config:X11Forwarding yes
/etc/ssh/sshd_config:X11DisplayOffset 10
/etc/ssh/sshd_config:X11UseLocalhost yes
Your help wud be highly appreciated...
