Using a PowerBook with YDL 3.01 installed, in the past I have been able
to export an externally running X windows application to the PowerBook
with the following procedure:
(1) Open Konsole on YDL 3.01 PowerBook, with IP address ww.xx.yy.zz
(2) xhost +
(3) telnet to machine which is to run X windows application
(4) In telnet window, on X windows application machine, export
DISPLAY=ww.xx.yy.zz:0.0
(5) In telnet window, on X windows application machine, start
application
This gets the application windows to pop up on the YDL 3.01 Powerbook.
Now when I try the same thing with YDL 4.0 installed on the Powerbook,
at step (5) above I get the message "Error: Failed to open display....."
. Does anyone know what is going on ?
