It seems that you did a "su" or "telnet" to your local or another machine and then started pgaccess. Either your DISPLAY variable isn't correct (it should be something like 192.168.0.3:0 - ipaddress of the machine where your X-server runs and a display number, eg 0 for the first X-server) or you forgot to issue a "xhost +xxx" where xxx is the name or the ip address of the machine running pgaccess. It is no pgaccess problem. xclock won't work, either. I recommend using ssh with enabled X11-forwarding, that does the job of setting DISPLAY and permissions automagically. -- PGP/GPG Key-ID: http://blackhole.pca.dfn.de:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xB5A1AFE1

It is usually done automagically. Be sure to turn X11 forwarding on, in every ssh_config and every sshd_config. -- PGP/GPG Key-ID: http://blackhole.pca.dfn.de:11371/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0xB5A1AFE1
