I HAVE GAINED ACCESS TO A REMOTE SOLARIS 2.8 WORKSTATION THROUGH TELNET.I AM ACCESSING IT THROUGH A WINDOWS ME SYSTEM.I WANT TO RUN A GUI APPLICATION(SUNVTS) ON THE SOLARIS BOX AND WANT TO SEE THE DISPLAY ON MY WINDOWS BOX. I DO THE FOLLOWINGS
I AM IN KORN SHELL, SO I export DISPLAY (IP AADDRESS OF THE WINDOWS BOX)
THEN echo $DISPLAY
IT BRINGS OUT 161.158.79.11.0
BUT WHEN I RUN THE COMMAND , IT SAYS
CAN'T OPEN DISPLAY ON 161.158.79.11:0
WHAT SHOULD I DO NEXT?
 
You need to be running an X-Windows emulator on your PC. Exceed, Reflection-X or similar.
