Remote execution of X Applications
Posted: Wed Sep 19, 2007 8:00 pm
I have access to a Virtual machine which I want to execute X applications. Being a Virtual machine X is not installed. I know I can launch apps through X forwarding with the following methods:
export DISPLAY=x.x.x.x:0.0
where x.x.x.x is the ip address of the machine which has X running
or
ssh user@domain -X
where domain is the address of the remote virtual machine.
But I somehow can't get to launch an application. Is it because I don't have an X window installed on the Virtual machine ?
cheers,
Jeffery
