Hi All,
I am new to X Windows and could use some help. We have an application
server that run Solaris 8.0. I want to be able to edit Unix files that are
on the server from my PC in a GUI environment. Currently, I am just using
vi through a telnet session.
I have install a GUI based editor (NEdit) on the Unix server and
cywin/Xfree86 on my PC. When I try to open the GUI based editor from a
telnet session from my PC I get the following error:
$ NEdit myfile
Xlib: connection to "192.168.101.19:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
NEdit: Can't open display
It seems that there is some more setup to be done for Xfree86 on my PC, but
I am note sure what it is and how to do it. Any pointers will be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks
