RE: Stupid X-server question...


All you need to do is run the 'xhost' command on your local machine and
verify that your 'DISPLAY' environment variable is set to include your
local hostname e.g. DISPLAY=mass:0.0 on the remote machine. Telnet over
to the remote machine and execute an X application.  The remote app will
use your local machine's dislpay.

I'd like to set up a Linux box to be an X _terminal_ to run X programs
that
exist on _other_ Linux boxes. What are the commands to do this (assuming
X
is set up and running on both boxes and they telnet fine with each other
via static IP addresses)?
