Unable to launch GUI from a Solaris 10 server

[Adi]

I have a Solaris 10 machine and I am trying to launch an application
installer window from that server.

bash#export DISPLAY=<IP>:0.0

Run the Reflection X client.

The installer did not launch. I got no errors but the GUI was not
launched as well.

Is there any other setting that is required on the server ?

Regards,
Adi

I've never used Reflection, but think about `xhost +`

additionally what about tcpdump/snoop , trying these tools to verify
that the X protocol is reaching your display. did you also try for /
usr/openwin/bin/xclock after setting up DISPLAY parameter just to
check X connection, lest installer doesn't run correctly.

xclock worked but the installer did not..
/usr/bin/X11R6 is missing on this server.. can it be because of this?
I tried doing xhost +, but it was returning command not found. So, I
tried xhost + from usr/openwin/bin/ and also from /usr/X/bin.
Both did not work.
I rebooted the server.
I tried to login directly from Reflection X client and run the
installer. That also did not work. The installer is running fine on
other servers, so there seems to be something missing on this
particular server.

From /etc/ssh/sshd_config:
# X11 tunneling options
X11Forwarding yes
X11DisplayOffset 10
X11UseLocalhost yes

Is there some other reason for this? I read somewhere that the
network
configuration might also be a reason for this. How can I check this?
