gftp& .. Error message
 
Some times when I run gftp I got the error meessage:
[mike@MS mike]$ gftp&
[1] 6273
[mike@MS mike]$ Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified


(gftp-gtk:6273): Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:



Why it happens?

Thanks

Try the following,
Code:
gftp &
Notice the space?

Interesting:

Sometimes it works with space and sometimes without space ...

well that's not related to the syntax as such. just means you're running gftp as someone other than the user who loaded X (you su-ed to root?). run "xhost +localhost" to allow any local user to run X applications
