| setenv DISPLAY When I ssh to a unix server from my mac with X11, I am unable to set the display properly. From other sun stations, from PC (using an XWin program), I have been able to ssh then open terminal to run software GUI. Here are the messages I get when trying to setenv DISPLAY in x11: setenv DISPLAY 130.15.245.139:0.0 sfnode0% nedit Xlib: connection to "130.15.245.139:0.0" refused by server Xlib: No protocol specified NEdit: Can't open display sfnode0% I use nedit to test that display has been set properly. If anybody knows how to fix this, I would appreciate some help. thx  |

| Run ssh with the -X option, it will enable forwarding of X11 over ssh, and will set the display for you. Otherwise, you probably didn't run the xhost command on your OS X box to allow X11 incoming connections. Brian

| Wow. And I've been "export DISPLAY=xxxxxx" manually each time. Thanks for the tip.

| Not to mention the fact that it's secure and encrypted by using ssh, which is a plus to the ease of use  Brian

| I believe you need to do xhost + on the machine you are connecting to sc |
