Hi Folks,

Has anyone every came across this problem when trying to run firefox remotely? I use putty to connect to my solaris box but cannot display back firefox as the following error occurs :

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display:

When I run echo $DISPLAY nothing is returned. I have also tried setting the display using the following command :

export DISPLAY=0:0

Nothing seems to work.

Can anyone help?
