[svlug] vmware, xfce and xterm

[Tom Pilot]

ok did that.. But now, after logging in thru ssh with -X and -Y, from the remote machine, I get:

AUDIT: Tue Aug  1 14:34:05 2006: 5168 X: client 6 rejected from IP 192.168.1.118

on the machine running the xserver

Any Ideas?

You can do one of two things:
1) use ssh X forwarding feature
2) run vncserver on the server and connect via vncviewer (which can
   be port forwarded through ssh if needed.)
