Help with using a remote xserver
Hello all,
I'm posting here because this used to work when I was using Slackware. I
have a mac (my wife won't migrate to Linux ... yet!) and a linux box
connect by ethernet. I run X11 on the linux machine, and because the
monitor on the mac is so much nicer, I like to use a X server on it.
There is a free xserver for the mac called MI/X. Worked fairly well
before I migrated to debian, but now when I try to start a client on that
display I get the following errors:
whitehouse$ xterm -display powermac:0.0
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
_X11TransSocketINETConnect: Can't connect: errno = 111
Error: Can't open display: powermac:0.0
whitehouse$
It also doen't work when invoked with
whitehouse$ xterm -display 192.168.1.2:0.0
This gives the same error. So what gives. I seem to have everything set
up on my mac the same as before. I've gone through the docs about X11 in
/usr/doc and yes I have Anybody as my secondline in /etc/X11/Xserver.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben
