I am working on HPUX 1.6 11.22 released for Itanium. When I set

export DISPLAY=IP:0.0 (where IP is the IP address). when i give xterm it works.

the same thing instead of IP if give hostname i get an error

Can't open display: hostname:0.0

Couldn't find per display information.

I've DNS. And i can resolve the hostname to its IP. Nslookup works fine

Ping hostname also works fine.

Any ideas.

Thanks

Yeah, but can you resolve the IP to a hostname, i.e. nslookup IP.in-addr.arpa?
