I have a netra T1 that I need to run Veritas Netbackup on.
The software needs a GUI to configure but the Netra does not have a graphics
card that I am aware of.
Is there anything I can install on the box that will allow me to run an X
session from another machine on the network?
Thanks in Advance
Paul

Set your DISPLAY environment variable to point to the remote machine.
sh:
DISPLAY=yourmachine:0.0 export DISPLAY
csh:
setenv DISPLAY yourmachine:0.0

That's a basic core part of the X software - all you need are the X
libraries and to follow the instructions at:

1. HELP: Second VGA monitor: What do I need to run another X-server on it?
Hi everybody,
I have Slackware linux on my machine, it runs and working fine.
Few days ago I got a present - MonoVGA monitor (well, not so good
but fine as a second one). So I decided to attach it to my Linux
box, and run an X-server on it. But I don't know what to strart from.
Here is the list of my questions:
1. How can I connect second keyboard to computer?
2. Shell I run separate X-server on each monitor?
3. Does XFree86 support double (or more) monitor systems?
Does Xfree86 supports keyboards konnected somehow else
than in keyboard port?
4. I know that I have to get second VGA card, and what about
hardware conflicts with the first one (Orchid ProDesigner IIs)?
Can someone recommend me the chip mono VGA card,that will work
will Linux?
5. Is it possible to install this second monitor/keyboard in another
room (10ft) or the distance is too large?
If it's imposiible to set-up it to work with X, than please point me too an
information about adding a text terminal.
--------------------------------------------------------
Please send me everything you know about dual-monitor Linuxes
--------------------------------------------------------
I'm going to summarize it, and may be I will write a HOWTO, later.
Please send me E-mail, togather with posting to newsgroup.
Thanks a lot,
Matt.
