[Xquartz-dev] Mac OS X 10.11.4

[James Gamber]

Regrettably, my xclock binary will not execute on the remote machine.  I
don't think it likes that binary.  I can run it fine from my Mac, where it
appears fine in XQuartz.

It is hard to believe that there is no test xclock or any X client app
anywhere on the internet that I can just connect to with xquartz from my
local mac and at least determine that a known x client application will
work.

Doesn't anyone know of such a test internet site.

If it doesn't exist, the X community should make one to confirm that a mac
X server, file wall, and X configuration settings are working over the
internet.

Regards,
Jim Gamber
