Running a remote application on a Hp-Ux (CDE).

[Michele Schwob]

I have a Hp9000 station running Hp-Ux v10.20 , with CDE v1.0. I am interesting
to run a remote application that need to open a graphic window , so for this I
need to redirect the display to my station (I can need to do that with the
application), but I need to Authorized om my Hp station the display of the
graphic window. How can I define authorization for other networked stations to
display on my Hp station?

-is the remote application running on unix system ?
-when starting the remote application, is the $DISPLAY set to your station's
correct IP or HOSTNAME:0.0 ?
-on your station, have you tried using the xhost command to allow systems to
connect to the xserver ?

The best way to test Xhost connectivity is to use something small like xclock.

1) go to the workstation you want the GUI to be displayed on.
2) do a xhost +server_name
where server_name is the name of the server that the actual gui application
is stored on not the one you want it displayed on.
3) telnet to server_name and set your display.
In csh setenv DISPLAY client_name:0.0
In sh export DISPLAY=client_name:0.0
4) run something simple like xclock
