After you login to the remote machine execute "echo $DISPLAY", it usually is wrong or at least that is my experience when using "ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED]" to a Solaris server... I even put into the remote machine's .bashrc : if [ $TERM = 'rxvt' ]; then TERM=xterm; export TERM fi if [ $TERM = 'xterm' ]; then DISPLAY=`who am i | cut -f2 -d'(' | cut -f1 -d')'`:0.0; export DISPLAY fi Test it before you use it; as I said this was for a Solaris server (which didn't know what a rxvt term was), it may not work on other Unix version.
