Well, one way to test your theory would be to make an ssh connection with
port forwarding for X through the ssh tunnel and see if that works. It is
possible that in the Sharing control panel (if that is still there in
10.3), you need to specifically set the firewall to allow ports X use--if
the firewall is turned on that is.<br><br>

I just upgraded my G4 PowerBook to 10.3 and am running into a
remote<br>
display issue with X11. I can get Kerberos tickets with kinit; I
xhost<br>
to my Athena workstation then telnet to it (with the -f or -F
switch);<br>
it logs me in (though there is an unusually long pause at the stage<br>
where it runs "standard startup activities"), but it's unable
to open<br>
the X display and I can't run X apps that display on the
PowerBook.<br><br>
I ran into something like this when I installed the new Fedora
Linux<br>
release- they added additional firewall rules that disable the X
port<br>
by default unless you edit a special config file; does anyone know
if<br>
Apple is doing this? (or just how to make remote X display work
with<br>
telnet on 10.3).<br><br>
ssh doesn't seem to have this problem but I'd like to be able to use
telnet<br>
too.<br><br>
Thanks,<br><br>
