I was using a dxssh script, --------- #!/bin/sh # exec ssh -C -L 4000:127.0.0.1:4000 "$@" --------- 4000 is the default dxpc TCP port. The connection sequences (as far as I remember) was 1. dxssh <remote machine> 2. On remote, dxpc -f 3. Use ~ followed by ^Z to stop the ssh process (~ is the ssh escape character. It has to be the first character of a new line. If the first attempt to background ssh doesn't work, press enter and try again). 4. On local, dxpc -f 127.0.0.1 5. Continue the ssh session with fg. 6. On remote, export DISPLAY=:8 (or DISPLAY=unix:8 according to the documentation). _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
