I have installed a fairly minimal Fedora 7 machine ~150 rpms. I am
trying to test a gui package I am working on. So, I have yum installed
the test package on that machine.
Following: http://www.linuxhowtos.org/Tips%20and%20Tricks/export_x.htm
I login as testuser. I try to export the display:
export DISPLAY=192.168.0.201:0
Then on a separate machine with X/gnome/testuser logged in etc, I, for
now, disable the firewall, and set xhost +192.168.0.99
Then back on the minimal install machine I run xclock {or my app}.
The result is the terminal session pauses for about 5-6 seconds, and
then: Error: Can't open display: 192.168.32.101:0.0
{with the firewall up the error is immediate}
I think I might be needing some non-default X package {client?} on the
minimal install, but what would that be - or am I doing something else
wrong ?
Thanks, DaveT.
