Yep the host file belongs to dan.
Here's the output of setting the display manually. I'm using putty.
export DISPLAY=localhost:10
[dan at dan ~]$ xlogo
Xlib: connection to "localhost:10.0" refused by server
Xlib: PuTTY X11 proxy: MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 data did not match
Error: Can't open display: localhost:10
Any ideas?
Thanks
Dan
