This seems to cause confusion. The X server needs to be running on the machine wich is displaying the program. The server does not need to be run on the system which is executing the program. You then set the DISPLAY environment variable on the system which is running the program. Sample steps: Start Exceed on system that is to display the program. Set DISPLAY on system which runs the program export DISPLAY=address_of_display_system:0 export DISPLAY="192.168.1.129:0" Run program. It should display on the appropriate system. > Thanks, > Frank > > > Frank Cisler > Telephone: (631) 852-3736 > frank.cisler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > <mailto:frank.cisler@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> > > > _______________________________________________ > XFree86 mailing list > XFree86@xxxxxxxxxxx > http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
