Re: howto pull the gui.....

[Sreeji K Das <bksys@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi

export DISPLAY=<IP_Address_Of_X_Server>:<Port>

For example, if you have machine A, where you are running an application
(say netscape) & you want the program to display the output (the GUI) on
machine B, then you do this:
Assume (A = 10.10.10.1 & B = 10.10.10.2)

Run X Server on B  (as X :1)
Login to A
Give the command export DISPLAY=10.10.10.2:1.0
Run netscape in A

Now you'd get the netscape window in Machine B.
