X on Solaris 11.3

in Oracle Solaris System Administration (MOSC) 4 commentsAnswered

It's that time in the year again when I need to run an X-compatible application, this time on a 11.3 Solaris Sparc 64

I have Putty (latest version) on my Windows 10, and I have MobaXterm which can run X on the client,

But ... it's not working. Yet again the dreaded "unable to open display" error.

I used a lot of Linux'es, and it can be a project on itself to get anything X running there, but I know it will be different on Solaris.

So, where do I start here ? I just need an X-compatible application running. I have X running on my Windows client, DISPLAY is set to point to my IP, tried with ":0.0" and ":1.0"

Howdy, Stranger!
