I really need it my friend because i commit it can happen
Following are the things that i did but didnt workout
ssh into server. then i gave xhost + , setenv DISPLAY <HOSTNAME>:1.0
, /usr/dt/bin/Xsession , but i only got a full black window , is its because of 8bit display? Am i doing the right thing. In server(solaris)sshd_config file x11forwarding = yes , i didnt specified any displayoffset value.

What about having a windows machine with xbrowser installed?
