cant open display

[Deva Seetharam <devs@usa.net>]

Hi,
i am running 2.2r4 with XFree86-4.1.0.

i did export DISPLAY=`hostname`:0.0 as user and xhost +`hostname` as root.
when i run netscape, i get the error message
Error: Can't open display:...

then i tried export DISPLAY=:0.0 and tried to run netscape.
i get the error message
Xlib:connection to :0.0 refused by server
Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 ke:0.0

Could anyone please explain?

thanks,
deva
