Re: display problem with HP UX

You need a X-Client software on your client (e.g. linux, cygwin, reflection X ...).

You need to allow the server to connect to your client

xhost +

connect to the server (e.g. telnet) and export the display to your client.

export DISPLAY=:0.0

Hope this helps!

Sorry, it should be "... you need a X-server software ..."

Hope this helps!

You need to have a X server softare like reflection, exceed, cygwin etc.
Cygin is freeware and you can downlad it from
http://x.cygwin.com/
