Hi All,
I am new to X Windows and could use some help.  We have an application
server that run Solaris 8.0.  I want to be able to edit Unix files that are
on the server from my PC in a GUI environment.  Currently, I am just using
vi through a telnet session.

I have install a GUI based editor (NEdit) on the Unix server and
cywin/Xfree86 on my PC.  When I try to open the GUI based editor from a
telnet session from my PC I get the following error:

$ NEdit myfile                                              
Xlib: connection to "192.168.101.19:0.0" refused by server  
Xlib: No protocol specified                                 
                                                            
NEdit: Can't open display   

It seems that there is some more setup to be done for Xfree86 on my PC, but
I am note sure what it is and how to do it. Any pointers will be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks
