I do not understand the problem, sorry.
vncserver is running on host A with display number 1 (which is given at
starttime of vncserver)
vncviewer is running on host B
To start a X-application (UNIX) on any UNIX box, which should use
vncserver, set the DISPLAY variable to "A:1"
(or use the standard X-option -display (e.g.: xterm -display "A:1")
This application should be visible in your viewer. (or any/all viewers
connected to the vncserver)
To start a X-application (UNIX) on any UNIX box, which should use your
local X-server, set the DISPLAY to "B:0".
To avoid authorization problems set the appropriate permissions with
xhost.
If this does not answer your question, please send a more enhanced
description of the problem (with error messages).
