Remote X Window

Hi,

I installed openssh-3.4p1 on Sun SPARC machine with Solaris 8. In sshd_config file, I set up X11Forwarding=yes. Then I tried remote X Window with two ways as followings:

(1) From a Sun SPARC/Solaris SSH client to Sun SPARC/Solaris SSH server. It worked good with xterm command.

# xhost +

% setenv DISPLAY hostname:0.0
% ssh computing.ias.edu -l user
% xterm -> It work well.

(2) From a Red Hat 7.3 Linux SSH client to Sun SPARC/Solaris SSH server. It didn't work with xterm command.

# ssh -X computing.ias.edu -l user
xterm Xt error: Can't open display:

Anyone knows how to resolve this DISPLAY problem from Linux machine?

Do you need help?
