Re: xwin32 error

[Stephen Oberther <oberther@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is usually a problem with your xhost setting or the DISPLAY
environment variable.

1) run xhost +server_name		(do this on your local machine)
					or through the xwin32-util

2) setenv DISPLAY=your_local_host:0.0     (do this on the remote machine)
