1878.0. "connecting DS3100 with SUN 3/60" by TPOVC::JOHNNYHO () Fri Dec 08 1989 23:05

    I tried to execute an X11 demo(xeyes) on a SUN 3/60 with MITX11R3
    and display it on DS3100 with UWS 2.0.  I think the network(telnet)
    is ok since they could login to each other.  I type the command on
    SUN "setenv DISPLAY tpact8:0" and then execute the demo. But nothing
    happen. Not even an error message.
    
    When I tried to execute an X11 demo, eg. xfish, on DS3100 and display
    on SUN by typing "xfish -display sinica2:0", the error message is
    something like "Xtoolkit error...".
    
    anything suggestion?          
    
    BTW. the node name has been put into the /etc/x0.host on each node.

    I have a similar configuration here (except UWS2.1),
    and it works fine. SunOS 4.0.1, X11R3.
    
    Have you given the Sun 'access' to the DECstation?
    
    On the DECstation,
    
    % xhost 'Sun_node' <return>
    
    On the Sun,
    
    % xeyes -dispaly 'DEC_node:0.0'
