Right...Bryn, Are you trying to connect to the correct $DISPLAY?
:0.0 is the "local" display (the display running on the machine where you are executing the command) which in this case, is the server.
You probably want to connect to ws001:0.0 or ws001.domainname.foo:0.0. You can find the correct syntax by booting the workstation in run level 3 and see what $DISPLAY is set to.

$DISPLAY was not set on the workstation, setting it to "ws001:0.0" and attempting to connect resulted in the same error as before.
A co-worker suggested adding in the server as an authorised x client on the workstaion and visa-versa (xhost +<machine>).
After running "xhost +ws001" on the server and "xhost +ogtux" on the client, the command:
ssh ws001 env DISPLAY=ws001:0.0 /usr/share/MozillaFirebird/MozillaFirebird
returns to the prompt straight away, nothing appears to happen.
A check of the logs on the server seems to indicate that nothing happened.
Am I going in the right direction? Some guidance would be appreciated.
Regards
Bryn
