Hi everybody
The current thread about twelve students using GRASS reminded me
of a problem we have: we run GRASS on a SUN (SunOS 4.x) and we would
like to use it remotely on other machines (e.g. HP).
GRASS itself is no problem - xterm works fine. However, we can't
open a monitor. Is there any way of passing a DISPLAY argument
to XDRIVER so the monitor window appears on the local machine?Any pointers welcome (including hacks to the XDRIVER code)?

Try:
setenv DISPLAY machine_name:0.0
(This is under C-shell. Use Bourne or Korn-shell equivelent as necessary. Don't
forget to make sure that the machine that you are attempting to display on has
permission set: xhost +machine_name )
