Mike,

Not necessarily. 

It depends on who started the Xsession. 

I regularly run 'xhost' on my workstation as a non-root user.

Root is unable to do so on the same machine.

Hi,

you'll need to be signed in as root in order to run the "xhost +" command.
The rest of that looks fine so :

as root : 
  xhost +

as oracle_user :
  export DISPLAY=<PC Client IP address>:0.0
  xclock    (to test yopur X config)

NB Exceed has its own array of bugs when used with the Oracle installer.
Good luck and I hope the 9i instaler handles Exceed better.

regards,
Mike Hately
