edited Mar 8, 2021 11:41PM in Linux Operating System (MOSC) 1 commentAnswered

Hi everyone,

I am using mobaxterm to connect Oracle Linux 8 server. Notice that I am running as "root"

a. [root@server1 ~]# grep -i X11 /etc/ssh/sshd_config

X11Forwarding yes

b. [root@server1 ~]# export DISPLAY=:10.0

[root@server1 ~]# xclock

MoTTY X11 proxy: Unsupported authorisation protocol

Error: Can't open display: :10.0

c. ls -a .Xauthority shows no such file, touch .Xauthority and xclock again. Same error message.


Please help


Thanks

Howdy, Stranger!
