I am running XWin Server on my Windows 7 machine. This starts up xinit,
xterm & XWin.
In the xterm window I enter
$ xhost +eis103l
and on eis103l I enter
$ export DISPLAY=eis-mrron.princeton.edu:0.0
I then run an Xwindow program on eis103l but nothing is displayed on
eis-mrron.
There is no firewall block at eis103l and I've turned off the Windows
firewall. After

Start the server with -listen tcp, or (better) stop doing things this
