Running a commercial app, I get 'Error: Can't open display: unix:1.0'.
It looks like possibly the app is using libxt? I get the following in
truss output:

2901:   stat("/tmp/.X11-pipe/X1", 0xFFBEDBC8) Err#2 ENOENT
2901:   open("/export/src/X11/lib/X11/XtErrorDB", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT

        right before it writes the error message and quits. I am running:

VNC viewer version 3.3.3r1 with SSH tunneling support

        on a linux 2.4 machine, X ver. 4.something. Server is solaris
8, same vnc version. Connection is made via an ssh tunnel.

        The app is spawned from a shell in an xterm window inside vncviewer.
Other apps, such as xterm, _have no problems whatsoever_ being spawned
thusly, and pop up in the vncviewer window just as one would expect.
There are no interesting messages in .vnc/$DISPLAY.log, AFAICT.

        I tried symlinking /tmp/.X11-pipe to /tmp/.X11-unix. That didn't
seem to have any effect. the 'stat("/tmp/.X11-pipe/X1"...)' would succeed
but the app would still croak with the "Error: Can't open display: unix:1.0"
message.

        I have browsed/searched the list archives and FAQ but not seen anything
similar.

        Thanks for any help/pointers!

        Austin

P.S. VNC Rocks! 10x faster than X direct over a cable modem connection!
