Hi,
I am not able to work with the command xhost. I need to open the same machine (not any other remote machine) in UI mode. How can I open this using xhost? I am using Putty to login to this machine.
I am simply writing the command as --> xhost +
There is an error displayed --> xhost: unable to open display "".
Please help on this.
Hi Thanks junior-helper,
I am using VNC on Windows to access a remote RedHat machine, but I receive an error "The connection was refused by the host computer". Th parameter X11 Forwarding is set to yes on the Redhat machine. But still this does not work, any further help on this?
You don't have an appropriate VNC server installed on your remote host
You have the VNC server, but it's not configured
VNC server is configured and up&running, but the firewall blocks incoming connections.
I don't know which of the points mentioned applies to your environment.
Below you will find instructions on how to configure the VNC server on the remote host (installation tested on RH6.4, access tested with Remmina):
Important note: This is an insecure setup (unencrypted connection).
Anyhow, with a minor change in /etc/sysconfig/vncservers (VNCSERVERARGS[2]="-geometry 800x600 -nolisten tcp -localhost"), it is possible to configure vnc server to only accept vnc connections from localhost, or through a ssh tunnel respectively. On Windows, the connection will not work anymore with a VNC client only (no ssh support?), but it should work in combination with Putty.

Some of my users find that a graphical program I have given them will not run until they type:
xhost +local:username
where, of course, they substitute in their own user name. My question is what the word "local" is doing there and whether it would work as well without it.
