Hello,
I am trying to export my display on a server (xen3) over to this machine running RHEL5.
on xen3 I have done
Code:
export DISPLAY=(ipaddress):0
on the RHEL5 machine I did xhost +xen3.
I also turned off firewalls on both machines and when I try to run xclock to test it will not display - I get the error:
error: can't open display: (ipaddress)
The interesting thing is when I run nmap -v localhost I get this:
Code:
Discovered open port 22/tcp on 127.0.0.1
Discovered open port 25/tcp on 127.0.0.1
Discovered open port 7100/tcp on 127.0.0.1
Discovered open port 111/tcp on 127.0.0.1
Discovered open port 631/tcp on 127.0.0.1
Discovered open port 676/tcp on 127.0.0.1
The SYN Stealth Scan took 0.25s to scan 1680 total ports.
Host localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) appears to be up ... good.
Interesting ports on localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1):
Not shown: 1674 closed ports
PORT STATE SERVICE
22/tcp open ssh
25/tcp open smtp
111/tcp open rpcbind
631/tcp open ipp
676/tcp open unknown
7100/tcp open font-service
I do not see tcp port 6000 open and I think this could be preventing the machines to not connect.
I edited the /etc/X11/fs/config file:
Code:
# For security, don't listen to TCP ports by default.
#no-listen = tcp
I commented out the no-listen and rebooted and still no 6000.
Any suggestions on how to get this running?
Thanks!
