[Paraview-developers] Remote rendering requirement of account privilege?

[Di Cheng]

Hi, All

I am running a remote pvserver on the Ubuntu server 12.04, when I was using old account, it can be run in remote rendering mode with option: "-display localhost:0". When I login as another user, I cannot. And when I connect it from windows, it pops up a window with some information to tell me I cannot do remote rendering.

I do not know how remote rendering works, but it seems it requires some account privileges. How can I solve this problem? I have compared those two account, new account belongs to more groups. What can I do to deal with this problem? Using sudo?
