export display from linux to windows

Hi Experts,

I was trying to export display from my suse linux desktop(a.b.c.d) to windows pc.
Installed Xming, in the additional parameters added option -ac.
on the linux, I entered
export DISPLAY=10.122.94.61:0.0
and when I run xclock,
# xclock
Xlib: connection to "10.122.94.61:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified

Error: Can't open display: 10.122.94.61:0.0

On windows I checked out xming log and it says
Welcome to the Xming X Server
Vendor: Colin Harrison
Release: 6.9.0.31
FreeType2: 2.3.4
Contact: http://sourceforge.net/forum/?group_id=156984

Xming :0 -multiwindow -clipboard -ac

XdmcpRegisterConnection: newAddress 10.122.94.61
winCheckDisplayNumber - Xming is already running on display 0

Fatal server error:

Can you please let me know, if I was missing anything to have this work.
Thanks in advance.

Use this instead...

export DISPLAY=10.122.94.61:0

not export DISPLAY=10.122.94.61:0.0

you may also need to run `xhost` on your server to allow the conenction.

I generally use `xhost +` but that may not be good for your environment. Check the man page for more info on xhost.
