xhost does not work as expected
Hello I am at 6.0 with xorg and I cannot remotely use a GUI backup software ( netvault) because I am not able to use properly the xhost command. On the server I set ( csh ): setenv DISPLAY hostname:0.0 On the client I set xhost + hostname but I am not authorized to use the client display from the server is there some special X11R6 configuration to use this feature ? thank you -- Frank Bonnet ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: xhost does not work as expected
Franck, I am at 6.0 with xorg and I cannot remotely use a GUI backup software ( netvault) because I am not able to use properly the xhost command. It is not clear what you can client and what you call server, are you talking about your backup software: the server is the machine with the tape drive and the clientis the machine where you sit and look at your GUI; or about X: the server is the machine where you sit and look at your GUI and the client is the machine running netvault and having the tape drive. That said: - can you run xterm on the netvault machine (m1) and display the window on the machine with 6.0 xorg (m2)? You need: - on netvault machine (m1) to setenv DISPLAY m2:0.0 - on 6.0 xorg machine (m2) xhost + m1 - are you sure that no firewall are blocking X connection between the 2 machines?
