Error: Can't open display:

10438Sep 28 2006 — edited Oct 2 2006
Hello all,

OS: AIX 5.2
Remotely Access via: SSH (PUTTY)

OPTION 1:

$ pwd
/usr/bin/X11
$ xclock
Error: Can't open display:

Please note:
Reflection is running.
I set DISPLAY LOCATION to localhost:0.
I set this value from putty (SSH) for this console.

Please note:
On the same way I can run xlogo, xclac from Sun Solaris and its work.

OPTION 2:

I also tried
export DISPLAY= local_IP_Add:0.0

$ xclock
Error: Can't open display: local_IP_Add:0.0

I can run xclock from my linux box on the same way (OPTION 2).
