Re: SSH and Reflection X to HP-UX 11.x
You'll need to install and configure ssh on your desktop first. Then run it, make a ssh connection to your HP servers's sshd daemon, then run reflectionX (after youve configured ssh on your desktop to allow X11 tunneling) - unless your version of ReflectionX has ssh built-in then all you need to do is configure it and activate it.

Re: SSH and Reflection X to HP-UX 11.x
But, whether i use putty or cygwin i get this problem.
I sepcify a program to execute ( for cygwin i use the default sample provided by reflection ). In both cases i get the following error on my target host:
Could not reverse map address 11.2.3.33.
Also, i presume you have to set your DISPLAY variable in a special way to force the traffic over ssh ?

Re: SSH and Reflection X to HP-UX 11.x
If you using DNS name while connecting using
ssh , it expects that the IP address should have a IP address - to - name mapping entry
available ( it will do a reverse lookup)in DNS server. So add this inverse entry in x.x.x.in-address.arpa zone of your DNS server.

Re: SSH and Reflection X to HP-UX 11.x
When I access via ssh from a linux box the SSH_CLIENT variable is set in the same way and in addition the DISPLAY variable as linux_ip:X11DisplayOffset:0.
Anyway: the message "could not reverse..." means that your remote system tries to make a reverse lookup for the ip adress of your windows system and can't get a name. This is not critical and can be ignored. If your windows system has a static ip adress you can add it to the /etc/hosts file on server or the dns maps of your dns server to avoid this message and make communication a little bit faster. If your windows system gets the ip from DHCP don't add it to the file or dns because the ip adress dynamically changed after release time.
If your application works everything is allright, if not there must be another problem.

Re: SSH and Reflection X to HP-UX 11.x
If you use Putty, you can also specify some environment variables in one of the option fields. I've had putty working in a PC->HP-UX and PC-Linux environment in this manner and have the DISPLAY pointing off to another DISPLAY rather than the Reflections/X one. In this way, I am using it more like a bridge than anything else.
One thing to keep in mind is that not all X-clients are equal. X11R5 clients in particular are rather fussy because they have the ability (at least on HP-UX) to use different transports. This can mean that the X clients can get confused with the localhost:10 DISPLAY of the remote 'dummy' Xserver when using ssh. The best way around this is to set the ssh config variable on the remote end, X11UseLocalhost to no. This will turn your remote DISPLAY name to the form nn.nn.nn.nn:10 which fools X11R5 into thinking that the DISPLAY is remote.

Re: SSH and Reflection X to HP-UX 11.x
The reverse lookup problem i solved by adding my winpc's ip into the hosts file.

Re: SSH and Reflection X to HP-UX 11.x
Plaese have a look at Ricks excellent posting.
I can't give you detailled explanations in configuring Reflection/X because I doesn't use it. I only use X applications from my linux box.
But you should do least:
On client enable X11 forwarding to submit your local DISPLAY variable to the sshd.
And on the remote system set X11UseLocalhost to no in the config file /usr/local/etc/openssh/sshd_config (as Rick has already posted). Don't forget restarting the sshd. After that your DISPLAY variable is set automatically to the right value.
