Setting the X11 display to show X applications under Win2k

Start up X-Win32 and an XDMCP session

on the machine you're running stuff off:

export DISPLAY=YOUR IP:0

run the program :)

Make sure the machine with the program on it (eg. /usr/games/tuxeyes) has xdm installed, and has open ports on the firewall (eg /etc/shorewall/rules:


ACCEPT fw loc tcp x11

ACCEPT fw loc udp x11
