Re: re : cannot emulate to hpux box

DISPLAY variable isn't set, which the message *tells* you. It probably needs to be the :0.0. You'll have to set it in the profile on the destination machine, or explicitly. To do the later, try changing the "Execution Command" from

/usr/bin/X11/xterm -ls -display $DISPLAY

to something like

/usr/bin/X11/xterm -ls -display :0.0

Re: re : cannot emulate to hpux box

what are you putting in for the DISPLAY now?

If IP address, is it the address of the PC running XManager or is it the address of the server you are attempting to connect to?
Are you using tunneled connections?

Xwindows uses port 8000 (and many above 8000). Are you truly going through a firewall to the open Internet? If so, the Xwindow protocol is quite unsecure and most modern firewalls will block it.

But rather than try to use a 'helper' screen in your PC's Xwindow emulator, simply telnet to the remote system. Then find out your PC's IP address. Now start xterm inside your current connection by typing:


/usr/bin/X11/xterm -ls -display :0.0

If the error message xterm can't open your PC display, you probably are hitting a firewall block.
