How to get xterm working with xming
HI,
I am puzzled by this because it worked before...is there anyway I can tell if the request is actually getting to the XP box and being refused, or whether it is blocked before that?
I have xterm running on Linux Redhat and Xming running on windows XP. I am attempting to export the window to the XP device.
I am invoking xetrm as follows:
xterm -display 10.89.8.47:0.0
Xlib: connection to "10.89.8.47:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
Warning: This program is an suid-root program or is being run by the root user.
The full text of the error or warning message cannot be safely formatted
in this environment. You may get a more descriptive message by running the
program as a non-root user or by removing the suid bit on the executable.
xterm Xt error: Can't open display: %s
xterm: DISPLAY is not set

I looked at the xming log on the client....it is seeing the connection but rejecting it:
winProcEstablishConnection - Hello
AUDIT: Sun Apr 25 10:42:08 2010: 4084 Xming: client 1 rejected from IP XX.xx.xx.xx
winProcEstablishConnection - ProcEstablishConnection failed, bailing.
