|    xhost not working under TigerVNC    |
|    21 Oct 22 23:37:13    |
      From: noemail@please.net               I have a Slackware 15.0 host A running a TigerVNC session on       display 1. I can connect to that session from another Slackware 15.0       system with vncviewer tunneled within an sshSSH channel. I can also ssh       into B from a terminal emulator in A.               What I would like to do is the following:               1. In the TigerVNC session in A launch a terminal emulator and       ssh from it into B.               2. At the ssh session in B created above send some graphical       output to the TigerVNC session in A.               Step two does not work - I keep getting 'Can't open display: A:       1.0'.               I thought that the way to do pull this off consisted of executing       the following commands in a terminal emulator in the TigerVNC session in       A:               $ export DISPLAY=A:1.0        $ xhost +B              The thing is, this makes no difference.               I know for a fact that this works when the session in A is not a       TigerVNC one, but one run directly on a display physically attached to       the hardware where this all is running. Which makes me think that the       TigerVNC server is launched by default in such a way that what I am       trying to do is implicitly banned.               Any idea on how to solve this?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
