Re: Remote open X application


Welson,

Here is the result:
1. Start Cygwin/X
DISPLAY = 127.0.0.1:0.0

2. ssh -X Remote Host
DISPLAY = My router's external address

So, how do you launch apps from the remote host then? Are you setting the DISPLAY variable on the remote host to point back to the Windows host?


By the way, do you do IRC? I am in irc.freenode.net/#cygwinx. It would be easier to help you there.
