my development server has a running Gnome-Desktop. I am connected to it by a ssh session. The Gnome-Session and the ssh session are running with the same user.
How to I start a Gnome-application (for example gedit) from the ssh remote session so that it appears on the remote servers Gnome-Desktop?
Thanks a lot,

This would probably work:
Tcsh:
Bash:
If you are not the user that is logged into the Gnome session, then you would need to do
xhost +to disable the authentication.If the above doesn’t work, then instead of
:0, try simply copying the DISPLAY environment variable to the ssh terminal.
