G'day,
 
I just installed this and had a play. Didn't have any trouble setting it
up; I think if you try..
 
export DISPLAY=192.168.42.10:0.0
 
..you may have more success.
 
Cheers,
Dale

	G’Day,
	
	I am following the instructions detailed in APC Issue 277 Jan
2002 article
	“Windows Onto Linux”. I have downloaded and installed WinAxe and
have logged
	in to my Linux box with the same username and password I use on
my Win2K
	box. I have exported the Display variable as detailed but when I
type the
	following at the linux box shell prompt I get:
	
	donovan at moe:~$ export DISPLAY=192.168.42.10
	donovan at moe:~$ gnome-terminal
	
	Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: 192.168.42.10
	
	My setup is as follows:
	
	Linux Box:
	
	192.168.40.2
	
	Win2K Box:
	
	192.168.40.10
	WinAxe running as described in article
	
	Anybody got some pointers for me?
	
	TIA
	
	-- Donovan
