The situation: The Xserver runs on beta and I added a cookie: xauth> add beta:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef xauth> list beta.mep.ruhr-uni-bochum.de:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 1234567890abcdef1234567890abcdef xauth> exit 16:22 beta: /home/roberte 0% echo $DISPLAY :0.0 16:22 beta: /home/roberte 0% xhost access control enabled, only authorized clients can connect INET:beta.mep.ruhr-uni-bochum.de INET:localhost LOCAL: Now I try to connect from gluon: 16:22 gluon: /u/roberte 0% echo $DISPLAY beta.mep.ruhr-uni-bochum.de:0 16:22 gluon: /u/roberte 1% xhost Xlib: connection to "beta.mep.ruhr-uni-bochum.de:0.0" refused by server Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key xhost: unable to open display "beta.mep.ruhr-uni-bochum.de:0" I tried recompiling the kernel, but no luck. 16:22 beta: /home/roberte 0% uname -a FreeBSD beta 2.1.5-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.1.5-RELEASE #0: Fri Sep 13 13:56:13 MET DST 1996 root@beta.mep.ruhr-uni-bochum.de:/usr/src/sys/compile/BETA1 i386 16:22 gluon: /u/roberte 1% uname -a FreeBSD gluon 2.1.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 2.1.0-RELEASE #0: Thu May 30 04:28:04 MET DST 1996 root@gluon:/usr/src/sys/compile/GLUON1 i386 Note, I'm running YP/NIS, with both machines bound to gluon. I also tried different DISPLAY vars, but to no avail. It used to work with 2.1.0-R. All machines use MD5 PWs. The r* programs work fine with beta.mep.ruhr-uni-bochum.de in .rhosts What else can I check ?
