Very Computer

I am trying to install Oracle on the system and some preinstallation steps are

(for csh)   setenv DISPLAY WORKSTATION_NAME:0.0
i replaced WORKSTATION_NAME with my host name   ie turing.

Second step is to do xhost +turing, but this gives me an error like
turing% xhost +turing
Xlib: connection to "turing:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
xhost:  unable to open display "turing:0.0"

When i start the installation it gives me same error documented below

turing% ./runInstaller
turing% Initializing Java Virtual Machine from /tmp/OraInstall/jre/bin/jre. Plea
se wait...
Xlib: connection to "turing:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11 window server using 'turing:0.0' a
s the value of the DISPLAY variable.

turing% cd

The account is oracle needed for installation and i am on the console.
Could any one help me out with this

thanks in advance

Please tell me you *are* somewhere in X-land, not on a
text console!

So if you logged in as (guessing) jishnuk and su'ed to
oracle for the installation, you'll need to run xhost from
a shell belonging to jishnuk.
