We use to allow for openning of X-Windows on our desktops while logged on to other machines.
After installing FC3 (with KDE) on machine A and logging onto machine B, and trying to open an Xterm on A, I got the answer: xterm Xt error: Can't open display.
From the Internet I found that some "wise" FC3-developers made the decision (for me & others) to "close this door", i.e. change some "secret" X-configuration parameters without telling, how to change this back.
Could anybody tell me, where to change the X-confugration in order to enable openning X-windows on my desktop agin ?
Thank you, Frank.
P.S. Yes, I know about this beeing dangerous.
No, 'ssh -Y' etc. does not help, since most of the 'remote' machines over here are SGIs with older IRIX-versions, so they do not / will not have ssh.
