[FreeNX-kNX] can't open display when running nxproxy

[Mark Scheufele]

Hi All,

not sure whether this is the correct place to ask this question, but I
didn't found any other mailing list regarding the nx line of products.
Therefore I thought I would give it a try.

I have compiled nxproxy on solaris and have as well installed the freenx
client package from the nomachine website on the solaris machines that
are participating in the tunnel. When I try to setup a tunnel I do the
following.

- login to the machine where the xclient programm will be started and
run the following command:

<mscheufe at sweng19:~>/opt/nx/bin/nxproxy -C :1000

- login to the machine where the xclient application should be
displayed. There I run nxproxy to connect to  
  the nxproxy instance on the machine where I want to start the xclient
programm.

After doing that I logged in to the machine where I want to run the
xclient (sweng19) and fired up xclock. But I get the error message
"Error: Can't open display: :8". 

I am now having two questions. Is the way I am running nxproxy correct?
If yes why can't the xclient not open Display :8

It would be really great if someone could answer my questions, even if
they might not totally be related to the normal content of the list.

Thanks in advance,
