Hi
I am having problem by setting up the DISPLAY env.
I tried this:

>export set DISPLAY=12.26.69.43:0.0
vijaya@bolivia</home/oracle/product/10.2.0>echo $DISPLAY
12.26.69.43:0.0
vijaya@bolivia</home/oracle/product/10.2.0>xclock
Error: Can't open display: 12.26.69.43:0.0

where 12.26.69.43 is my whatismyip address:
Oracle is installed in server called BOLIVIA and i am trying to access netca,oui and other utilites from my Desktop

You need to ssh to the DB server with X11 tunneling enabled before xclock will function as desired & therefore so will OUI.

Post "env | grep DISPLAY";
Execute "xhost +" and retry.

Read anacedent's response. Or use an true xterm client. You cannot use Windows telnet.

[edit]
Oh, and you do have an Xserver (like Hummingbird) running on your PC, right?
