jokar.mohsen · 11-23-2014, 06:46 AM

hello all.
how are you?
I use CentOS 6.5 x64 and I wan to use xterm but it show me an error :

[jokar@Syslog ~]$ xterm
xterm Xt error: Can't open display:
xterm: DISPLAY is not set

I edited SSH config as below :

AllowAgentForwarding yes
AllowTcpForwarding yes
X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
X11UseLocalhost no

and use "ssh -y XXX@ip" but my problem not solved

. How can I solve it?
My goal is to use "rxvt-unicode".

Cheers.

After you modified your sshd_config file did you restart the ssh daemon?

Are you using the exact command as posted? should be a -Y vs -y. Check the ssh man pages.

xhost + yourhost

Thank you so much. When I use -Y then "xterm" command worked
