Re: remote X display fails on RH8

Double check your DNS settings on the linux box :)

- use ssh with X11 forwarding..

- login back to your linux box from the solaris box to see what the DNS name is coming back as.. sometimes I need to specify a FQDN (Fully Qulified Domain Name) like xhost +host.sub.domain.com instead of xhost +host ... my case has to do with using LDAP, and its property of always returning a FQDN

rlogin to the solaris box
