Shalom,

On the host, which I will assume is hpux based on the forum you posted to.

vi /etc/rc.config.d/xfs

Change the first variable to 1

/sbin/init.d/xfs start

ssh -X hostname command

Done unless there is an iptables firewall blocking access.

Re: xwindows interfacing

If it is Linux , try similar to this

#cat start_Xvfb.sh

hostname=`/bin/hostname`

export DISPLAY=${hostname}:15.0
/usr/X11R6/bin/mwm &
sleep 2
/usr/X11R6/bin/Xvfb :15 -ac -screen 0 1024x768x8 &
