Re: [PyMOL] running PyMOL remotely - how to do it without GUI

[Douglas K. <djk...@un...>]

one other option.  if you use ssh (instead of telnet) ... use the '-X' 
flag and there's no need use the xhost command:   ssh -X user@hostname

see 'man ssh' for all options -- your server may need to be setup to 
use this specific switch.  if you are under windows, you can check out 
'cygwin' to connect to a remote server too (it provides a nice bash 
command prompt for windows & X).
