Hi,

Yes I was able to run xclock. It showed up on my frontend monitor not on the wall.

Thank you.

Jerrold,

Can you run xclock from the terminal successfully or does it give you the same error?  Usually when I see this error, it means that something is preventing the client from connecting to the xserver (firewall, xhost, etc).  

If you cannot run xclock, verify that the firewall is allowing x traffic (I typically turn the firewall off as I have a hardware firewall on my network) and that xhost is allowing your system to connect to the xserver.
