[gentoo-user] how to set DISPLAY environment var. for lotus notes?
Matthias F. Brandstetter
after successfully installing Lotus Notes 6 (on a remote server) I want to
setup it now via httpsetup. So I activated X11 forwarding in server's
sshd_config and on my local ssh_config. Then I did a
$ xhost +<serverIP>
After connecting to my server via ssh and switching to notes user, I did
$ export DISPLAY="<localIP>:0"
and then
$ /opt/lotus/bin/http httpsetup
but I still get this error message:
--<snip>--
./java -ss512k -Xoss5M -cp jhall.jar:cfgdomserver.jar:Notes.jar
lotus.domino.setup.WizardManagerDomino -data /usr/local/notesdata
Please edit your shell's DISPLAY environment variable to reflect an
unlocked terminal that you would like to launch the Domino Setup Program
on.
--</snip>--
Any ideas on this? Did I miss something?
Greetings and TIA, Matthias

It looks like you mixed up 2 different things. the xhost command is used
for plain remote login
to allow connections from theremote server to your X server.
However you use ssh and in that case you shouldn't need export/set the
DISPLAY variable.
As you said you have enabled X11 forwarding in the ssh config files so
your DISPLAY variable should be set when you login to the remote server.
You switch user that will lose the DISPLAY setting probably. Have you
tried logging on directly as the user you execute the program from ?

It seems DISPLAY var isn't set at all:
--<snip>--
[ 12:07 haim@itchy ~ ] ssh -X -l root bruyere
Password:
bruyere root # set | grep DISPLAY
bruyere root # grep "X11" /etc/ssh/sshd_config
X11Forwarding yes
#X11DisplayOffset 10
X11UseLocalhost no
bruyere root #
--</snip>--
What did I wrong?

#X11DisplayOffset 10
Then sshd creates the DISPLAY number in this case you should see
<hostname>:10.0
when you do echo $DISPLAY

On the machine with <serverIP>, can you open an xterm (or whatever) and
have it displayed on the display 0 of machine with <localIP>?

Unfortunately, I have no X installed on this server, so no xterm or
similar. Is there any tool I could install to test what you mean, w/o
installing all X11 (as for dependecies)?

changes ...
You can try to run ssh in verbose (ssh -vv root@<hostname> mode and
check the output for
X11 related messages......

installed you can't use X forwarding.....
You don't have X installed on the remote host I reckon ?

Indeed ... Do I need X installed on the remote host as well to forward any
X related stuff? I can't start a X app on the remote host and forward
output to my local machine that way?

secure X forwarding connection.
Now I read your original post again, and assuming you don't need to have
your X session to run
within the ssh tunnel , you should be able to set your DISPLAY manually.
I noticed that you didn't set the DISPLAY's session just the 0 for the
display to use.
so can you try after using xhost + to allow connections on the localhost
and then set the DISPLAY on the remote host to <localhost>:0.0
I'm not sure if it works as I don't know how regualr X server do their
authentication actually.
I think using xhost is all there is to it for host based authentication
but I could be wrong
