I have run xhost +ipaddr for another linux box (i386). I then ssh to that box and set the DISPLAY variable to point to my ibook. However, when I try to launch a X program, the display attempt is refused. Is there some default parameter that is being set that tells X to refuse external connections?
grepping for the X server option which is effecting you,
/etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf:command=/usr/X11R6/bin/X -nolisten tcp
-deferglyphs 16
/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers::0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp
It depends which display manager you are using, but if you want network
access to the display, then you want to take out the "-nolisten tcp"
arg.
