Try your_IP:0 instead of your_IP:0.0 - I have seen :0 work in some cases where :0.0 does not. Don't ask me why though :)

I'm coming in on port 23 here. Exceed is running on my Windows PC but it complains saying the following:

ksh: @: not found.

if the x.x.x.x is your workstation ip address try, in ksh,
export DISPLAY=x.x.x.x

I moved this 5.2.02 Box into our DMZ. I locked down inetd ports, but feel I
have re-opened them up again.

Now, trying to Xterm in, I get the following. I wonder if my firewall guy is
stopping me?

Any help today? TIA!!!

ksh: @: not found.
