Hi,
I have installed the entire cgywin package along with XFREE86. I want to
use it have the display of a remote program running on my local m/c.
After installing, I executed startwin.bat and the XServer started. I
think I need to start Xterm as well to set the xhost, however, I do not
know how I should do this. After I connect to the remote server using
ssh through bash, I export the display using
export DISPLAY=ip_localmachine. However, this does not give me the
display of the remote program. What is it that I am suppose to do and I
am not doing. I think I am making some mistake, but do not know what.
Any help well appreciated.
Thanks
Monika
