Re: GUI apps through ssh


Thanks a lot, X11Forwarding worked just fine. The only thing is that default
DISPLAY value is set 'solaris:10.0' which is not accessible. So I had to
change it manually to 'localhost:10.0'. And it worked finally.
How can I get the proper set by default?

Many thanks indeed,
Artem A. Avetisyan.

Don't forget to enable X11Forwarding at the Target sshd

It must forward X11

in /etc/sshd_config

X11Forwarding yes


defaut is "no":

#X11Forwarding no

DISPLAY-Setting is by sshd !!
Result is e.g.

DISPLAY=localhost:11.0


Mit freundlichen Gr??en
