Re: [nv-l] exporting DISPLAY (AIX) via VPN

Assuming you are also running a firewall,
you have to open udp port 6000 for your X server (eXceed or whatever you
are using) to get data from your X client (NetView).  If you using
nat, you have other configuration issues before you can use port 6000.
 Test with xclock first (small and fast, and it's useful: it tells
you the time, maybe :-)

Subject	[nv-l] exporting DISPLAY (AIX) via VPN

Has any one had problems exporting the Display
in AIX to be able
to start the gui (Netview) via VPN?  If so, how did you get around
it?

I can’t seem to do it from home.  I’ve just acquired cable modem.

Thanks,
