Yep, all of that seems to be set properly and none of my other X programs have
a problem opening their windows on the Mac's display (xclock, for instance,
works just as expected). But, none of them are java-based either. So it is
probably something to do with either the java installation on my SGI or the
fact that it is trying to run via an rlogin instance.

Does anyone know of a program in java that will run as expected with
xhost/rlogin rather than via ssh so I can test things?

(if I just do java -jar /path/to/Jmol.jar while at the SGI display everything
seems to work correctly)
