@stan lin:
"xhost +" on a windows system?
Maybe with cygwinX only ...

@DnD:
Does it work now?

[Stan Sieler]

Torsten: yep, xhost + on a windows system.

Xhost.exe comes with xming, and (IIRC)Cygwin.
(But not with WRQ/Attachmate's Reflection X,
nor with Starnet's X-Win32).
(X-Win32 has an xhost-like list you can edit)
(Refelction X has an xhosts.txt file)

DnD: don't forget points :)

thanks,

Stan

I have no xhost with my xming, but I think I remember it was needed with cygwin ...

I just discovered that xming can do XDMCP.

Yes,, Best option is to install an Emulation software and start with the installation

YOu could install X-manager software on your Windows host and start dtlogin and xfs daemons on HP-UX server
# /sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start
# /sbin/init.d/xfs start

Once you login via emulation software, the display variable is automatically set to Windows hosts.

Torsten: no xhost with xming

Good point...it's not in the default package.
It is in the Xming-tools-and-clients package,
available at http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=156984, among others.

BTW, the xming xhost works fine with WRQ Reflection X. (I suspect it should work
with any PC X server.)

Thank you Stan.
