First:
From xmon(1),
"BUGS: Xmon only handles TCP socket connections.
UNIX domain sockets and DECnet are not supported."
Thus you might need "xhost +`hostname`
".
Force a TCP/IP connection with "DISPLAY=`hostname`:1
"
or "localhost:1
".
The code doesn't set SO_REUSEADDR
, so you might get a
"bind: Address already in use" after restarting it. In this case use
another port with the option "-port" or wait about two minutes.
myhost$ xmonui -display :0 | xmond -server :0 -port 1 myhost$ netstat -a | grep 600 *.6000 *.* [...] LISTEN *.6001 *.* [...] LISTEN myhost$ xhost +myhost myhost$ DISPLAY=myhost:1 xfd -fn fixed...or "localhost:1", but not ":1" (even not with "xhost +localhost")

All the above was done on an X11R5.
