Thanks for all the helpful fast replies! ----- Forwarded message from Brett Lymn <blymn@baesystems.com.au> ----- From: blymn@baesystems.com.au (Brett Lymn) To: stanb@awod.com (stan) Subject: Re: ssh port fowarding question Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2002 00:58:24 +1030 (CST) X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.5 PL2] According to stan: > >I want to run, say admintool on WP550, and have it's dislay be on brown. >AP550 can route to brown, and WP550 can route to AP550, but not brown. > ok on AP550, do this: ssh -R 6002:brown:6000 WP550 then in the resulting shell on WP550 set the DISPLAY environment variable to be: localhost:2.0 What you are doing is setting up a port on WP550 that listens on the screen 2 port for X (port 6002), all traffic on that port will be forwarded to brown:0.0 (port 6000). You may have to play with xhost or xauth to allow the X access. -- =============================================================================== Brett Lymn, Computer Systems Administrator, BAE SYSTEMS =============================================================================== ----- End forwarded message ----- -- "They that would give up essential liberty for temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." -- Benjamin Franklin _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Thu Mar 14 10:00:16 2002
