Hi,

DISPLAY=192.168.10.1:0.0
export DISPLAY

(Instead of 192.168.10.1 type your local system ip )

Hi Yes as above however you must be running X emulating software and where DISPLAY=:0.0

check that you are running from 0:0 and not 1:0, 2:0 etc.

from the server you logged into:

echo $DISPLAY

also you may need to run

# xhost + or xhost

to allow the screen to be displayed.

hope this helps

Hi,
If you want to start a specific application (not the whole X) you can do it on that way:

1. ssh -X remote_HP-UX_system
2. just run the application which you need and it will start in your local machine (for example you can try to run xstm)

a simple to see if your X-display is working is xclock

do you get any error-messages when you try to launch your X-application ?

if the display is working wfor the account you loggin with but you su to a different user remember to export your DISPLAY and xauth after su-ing

i.e.;
logging as guest
echo $DISPLAY -> 192.168.10.20:10.0
xauth list ->
hostname:10 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 "x-key"
Look for the "x-key" that correspond with the display-number

su - admin
export DISPLAY=192.168.10.20:10.0
xauth add hostname:10 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 "x-key"

check: xclock
display should be on your "local"-machine
