I'm having a problem displaying X apps on a remote host. I've done this
plenty of times before but for some reason I can't get it today, I must be
forgetting something. On the remote host, I ran "xhost +" to allow
everyone access to the X server over the network. On the host I want to
run the X apps from, I ran "export DISPLAY=remotehostname:0.0". When I
try to start an X client, I get an error about not being able to open the
display. Neither server has iptables running.
root at remotehost:~> xhost +
access control disabled, clients can connect from any host
root at tux root# export DISPLAY=192.168.1.61:0.0
root at tux root# xeyes
Error: Can't open display: 192.168.1.61:0.0
