&gt; Subject: [ale] what am I missing on remote X??
&gt; 
&gt; I want to enable another machine to initiate the display of 
&gt; an image on my primary box.  I'm doing this with another box 
&gt; now, but for whatever reason, I'm missing something here.
&gt; 
&gt; For example:
&gt; 
&gt; main machine running X
&gt; 
&gt; secondary machine not running X, fires up 'display foo.jpg'
&gt; 
&gt; display foo.jpg runs on secondary box but displays on main machine.
&gt; 
&gt; This is driving me nuts.

Assuming all env vars are set correctly (i.e. the client knows about the
display server) then xauth is usually the culprit. Try xauth +[clientipaddy]
on the X server machine to grant permission. Then check firewall rules.
Command syntax is as follows:

display -display [192.xxx.xxx.xxx:0] ./image1.png
