What might be the problem? Thanks

X using UNIX sockets rather than TCP sockets? If you want to connect to a remote X server, I suggest establishing X forwarding over ssh. Look in /etc/ssh/sshd_config on both machines for the relavant argument to turn on, and


foo$ ssh -X bar
bar$ xeyes

...should stick xeyes on foo's X server.
