Export Display to windows from Linux using Xserver in Secured Network


Steps for exporting display to windows machine from linux server:

1) Make sure that you have static IP, which can be obtained using Ethernet instead of wireless.
2) Open Firewall on ports 22, 6000, 113 & Ping
3) Telnet to windows machine from server
4) Change the /etc/hosts.allow file in servers (local firewall) and add ip address of windows machine ip.
5) Use Xming.exe :0 -clipboard -multiwindow –ac to allow display from Linux machines otherwise it throws
X11 connection rejected because of wrong authentication.
Error: Can't open display: localhost:10.0

Thanks !!!
