I'm not an expert with regard to X so I wonder what to make of this. Also (even before I made the changes to the Computer Name), once I had X up and running, I could only run apps like OpenOffice from an xterm terminal shell but never from an OS X terminal shell. I suppose it must have something to do with how Xterm is configured ... are there some decent HowTos to read with regard to how to best set up one's bash profile on OS X in order to be able to run X apps from the normal terminal shell instead of requiring to run under Xterm, all in the context of MacPorts?

try running xhost + in the xterm window (to allow any host to connect) then trying your command again. X doesn't permit connections by default. Once it works you can narrow it down to one or a group of hosts.
