Eclipse over XWindows

Running and rendering the remote XWin session of eclipse.

61  set | grep SSH
[me@remote ~]$ set | grep SSH
SSH_ASKPASS=/usr/libexec/openssh/gnome-ssh-askpass
SSH_CLIENT='172.18.153.150 49238 22'
SSH_CONNECTION='172.18.153.150 49238 10.10.10.3 22'
SSH_TTY=/dev/pts/3

Use the SSH_CONNECTION ip listed on local to export

60  xhost +  
70  ssh -X foouser@ip_remote_host 'export DISPLAY=172.18.153.150:0;/opt/eclipse-3.3.1.1-europa/eclipse/eclipse'

Do not use the hostname or worse alias for the remote but use the remote ip address in our example 10.10.10.3 When you do not have a local Xserver running you might see this:... if thats the case change your myhostnameasalias to the network IP address of the remote host, 10.10.10.3..

me@local $ ssh -X 'me@myhostnameasalias' 'export DISPLAY=172.18.153.150:0;java -Xmx1536m -Xms1024m -jar myjar.jar '
