I have X running on 4.1. From another PC I use ssh to remote in.

from the command line I enter "export DISPLAY=machine:0.0; mozilla" and nothing comes up on the X window screen. mozilla just returns.

I then tried in a terminal on X windows issue the command "xhost + " and redid the "export DISPLAY=machine:0.0; mozilla" on the command line with nothing showing on the X window screen again.

If I remote into machine and enter the command "mozilla" it will display on my workstation no problem.

Why cant I get it to display on the machine:0.0 display?

Some gui commands (mozilla for one) require ssh -Y for trusted access, (man ssh for differences)

THanks for any help.
