c.Enable TCP connections on the X server of the remote client:
SUSE - Edit /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager and set the following options
to yes: DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS and DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER_TCP_PORT_6000_OPEN.
For example: DISPLAYMANAGER_REMOTE_ACCESS="yes" DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER_TCP_PORT_6000_OPEN="yes"
RHEL (for gnome) - Edit /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf and set the DisallowTCP
option to false (uncomment if commented)
For example: DisallowTCP=false
d.If you made any changes in the configuration files during the previous steps, reboot the system for the changes to take effect.
2.Run the following command at the command prompt:
# /usr/X11R6/bin/xhost +
Then, set the display to your client. Refer to the documentation for your shell for more information.
•Accessing the Linux host from a remote Windows client - Start up a local X server, connect through xterm to the remote system and set your DISPLAY environment variable appropriately by using the following commands:
#
where
#export DISPLAY
For Example:
#DISPLAY=172.168.10.15:0.0
#export DISPLAY
