Hi All, I attempting to set up a Linux desktop at my company. I am using SUSE 7.3. Our core apps run on 2 different SCO Unix servers. To the one we simply telnet into and run it's app (I understand that telnet is insecure but I would like to not turn this thread into that discussion). To the other SCO box we currently run an App that we access via windoze running HummingBirds Exceed client. From windoze with exceed we get a graphical login and it starts a remote X session for the user. I am trying to reproduce this result using Linux. If I do I can start rolling out a Linux desktop throughout my company. Here is what I have done so far... On my local linux box (linux1) I typed xhost sco2 it returned the message that sco2 was added to the access list. On my sco unix box (sco2) I telneted in and typed export DISPLAY=linux1:0 it returned no message at all, just back to the prompt. My problem is HOW do I get the graphical display from sco2 to show up on linux1 like it does on windoze\exceed. The user name and password is the same in both cases (linux & windoze). I realize that this may be trivial and old hat to many of you BUT it is the one thing from stopping me from introducing a Linux only desktop to my company. Help! and Thanks in advance!
