Tip: X-Window Display on localhost from Remote system (UNIX/Solaris/Linux/OS X)

X-Window display on local host with known hostname or IP address:

  1. Confirm remote host has Xaccess configured to allow remote connections. Note:The file is located in /etc/dt/conf/ on Solaris 9
  2. Type on the local host:
      X -query <hostname or IP address>
