LinuxQuestions.org - Can't open GUI of programs in remote machines by telnet and setting DISPLAY.....

Hello all,
I'm trying to connect to my sun server (192.168.2.57) from my linux machine (Fedora core 1 - 192.168.2.95) to run a program in GUI mode. but i can't open the program in graphical mode. I was able to do this with redhat 9 which i was previously using. however some of the redhat 9 machines also have the same problem. i can get the program run from another redhat 9 machine.

what can i do to get it working on my system? the sunserver had c shell (.cshrc). does that make any difference? i searched net a lot. but i cudn't find the solution.

these are the commands i have given and the out put...

Code:

%xhost +

access control disabled, clients can connect from any host



%telnet 192.168.2.57

Trying 192.168.2.57...

Please do a setenv DISPLAY ... and try again.

Make sure your display authorizes connections from your host.

Consult your system manager for help.
