down to a simpler case, just to try & get this to work. I want to run

From the command line, if I do<br>
On Irix: pvdataserver -rc --client-host=meteor<br>
On Linux: pvclient -rc --data-server-host=prism<br><br>
It starts, but the Irix machine wants to do the rendering, which fails
because I don't have an X display (I'm just SSH'ed in remotely).
<br><br>
Using a PVX file like so (named "dual.pvx"):<br>
<?xml version="1.0" ?><br>
<pvx><br>
<Option Name="reverse-connection" /> <br>
<Process Type="client"><br>
<Machine
Name="<a href="http://meteor.erdc.hpc.mil">meteor.erdc.hpc.mil</a>
" /><br>
</Process> <br>
<Process Type="data-server"><br>
<Machine
Name="<a href="http://prism.erdc.hpc.mil">prism.erdc.hpc.mil</a>
" /><br>
</Process> <br>
</pvx><br><br>
And then doing the following:<br>
On Linux: pvclient dual.pvx<br>
On Irix: pvserver dual.pvx or pvdataserver dual.pvx<br><br>
The client starts just fine on Linux, and goes into the waiting state
(because of the Reverse Connection). But the server always fails
with the following error:<br>
[11:14:32am]% pvserver dual.pvx<br>
Connect to localhost:11111<br>

The default host (--client-host, in this case) is localhost. You either
need to specify --client-host=<i>client_host_name</i> on the server
command line or add it to the .pvx file: <Option
Name="reverse-connection"
Value=<i>client_host_name</i>/>.<br><br>
<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">I have no idea why it's trying
to connect to localhost. I get the same error whether I use
pvserver or pvdataserver. <br><br>
