Hi, I have the same problem. Using the browser utility, I am able
to connect to remote SUN host. All is fine. But when attempting to open X-windows application from shell, it says that he cannot open the display. I tried to ping to my pc and it responded that the PC is alive. If I open the application from a window, it does run.

Please confirm that the DISPLAY variable is configured correctly by running the following command after login via Xbrowser:

# echo $DISPLAY
myip:1.0
#

Here, "myip" should be the IP address of your PC and the ":1" should be equal to the number displayed on the Xmanager titlebar.

If the DISPLAY variable is incorrect, it is redefined somewhere in your shell script(.cshrc, .profile, .login or others).

For further assistance, please let us know the exact command you entered to launch the X application.
