I just installed FC1 and am now unable to display X sessions back to my box.
Access to the remote machine is done via ssh and I am using the -X option to
ensure that X-Display is activated.
I have tried:
xhost + (on the local machine)
export DISPLAY=148.80.180.89:0.0
I get this error when attempting to display the X-Session back:
Can't connect to X11 window server using '148.80.180.89:0.0' as the value of
the DISPLAY variable.
I just got this answer from Terry early this morning and here's
what you do:
There is a setting in /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf
DisallowTCP=false
The above setting will allow X display
Save all your files, work, what-ever and maybe even logout of X
nicely. Then pop out to a root shell <CTRL-ALT-F1>, login as root if
you haven't already, do an 'init 3 ; init 5', Now login, get a shell
(terminal), do a xhost <servername> and your in business. Now you'll
be able to login and run those remote xterm sessions. Worked for me.
Thanks Terry!
