I want to display X programs on a local client, from a remote server,
using ssh. I expect there is a correct, automagical way to do that.
Right now, it involves jumping through a couple of hoops.
# locally, in a client xterm:
client> xhost +server
# in another client xterm, ssh'ed to the server:
server> export DISPLAY=client:0.0
server> an_X_application
... and that will pop up an X window for an_X_application on my client
screen. But I expect that I can accomplish the same thing with by
twiddling, say, .bashrc on the server and /etc/ssh/<someconfigfile>
on the client. Or something.
What is the correct way to do this?
