display redirection

[Maciej Szewczykowski]

Hi all,
Got a simple question. How to redirect a display, so the graphic of certain application is displayed on another machine? i just remember that it was something like this:

export display ... and here IP followed by port No. I think so.

And another relevant question: where are located binaries of graphical file manager (i'm talking of HPUX naturally) so i can start the file manager on one workstation but have the graphical output on another one?

thank you in advance.

either

export DISPLAY=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:0

replace the xxx's with the IP address of the display you want it to work on or

most applications will allow you to do this

xterm -display xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:0

You might need to do "xhost +" on the recieving display.

Maciej,
Its like

export DISPLAY=:0.0

where hostname/ipaddress is the hostname or the ipaddress of the client where you would need to redirect the display

Hi,

This should help.
export DISPLAY=:0.0

Hi,

How to redirect must be clear right now. If you have 2 xservers running on the client, the second can be reached by exporting to :1

The binaries that you are looking for are in:
/usr/dt/bin
The filemaneger is: dtfile

HTH,

Hi,
You can ofcourse use
# export DISPLAY=IP:0.0
But if you have C Shell the you have to use
%setenv DISPLAY=IP....
Because while installing oracle you may need this.
