Can't make xdiff run

yann_5 — Thu, 01 Apr 2004 11:51:14 GMT

I try to launch xdiff on a HP-ux 10.20 server
via xdmcp (export DISPLAY...)on a solaris 5.8 station.
the solaris cpu run a 100% and nothing appears but it works fine with a reflexionX session or directly on the server.

We get two error FontSet related but alzo on the PC with reflexion.

Thanks for your support

Hi,

Did you set xhost on the solaris system(before the connection to the HP-UX is made or from another shell)?
Like: xhost + (enable all system to run an application and display it on your solaris system)

HTH,
Peter

In fact, there are some X application that runs on the solaris station from the hp-ux server, like Norton edit (nedit) or tetris.
We must use xhost + at every solaris logon but it was already done....
I ask on the HP site because it happened after a reinstallation of the hp server.... and we can't find the solution

Thanks

First do a xclock and check whether the remote macihne could open up display on a solaris box.
