Hi! Folks,

My Linux PC is on a private network and connects to the Internet via
a (Linux) router using IP masquerading. Things mostly work fine. But
I have a problem with X and its this.

If I wish to run a remote X client, I have to set the value of the
DISPLAY environment variable on the remote machine to point to the
server running on my local PC. As long as both server and client run
on machines that are on the same network, things are fine. But in
my case, I am unable to set the DISPLAY variable correctly since I
don't know what IP address to give there. Neither my local address
(on the private network) nor the address of the router work. Any
ideas?

Thanks in advance.
