I don;t know about xming, but with putty and cygwin I had to do:
Putty
Under default settings, go to connection / ssh /x11. Enable X11 and set
authority to C:\cygwin64\home\xxxxxxxx\.Xauthority

With everyone working from home, a new issue has arisen. We can’t get
x-windows to work over VPN. That makes it difficult to run things like
dbua.
Our environment:
Windows 10 laptop – at home connected via Cisco VPN to work
Xming running on laptop
SecureCRT running on laptop, under Options -> session options, X11
Forwarding turned on
Linux 7 server
Oracle 12, 18, and 19
I’ve tried setting the DISPLAY to the IP address on my laptop (from
ipconfig) and to 127.0.0.1:0.0.
When I try to run dbua, it sits for a while then returns the following
error:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: Could not
initialize class sun.awt.X11.XToolkit
I’m sure someone has been able to get this to work. If anyone can let
me know what needs to be done, I’d really appreciate it.
Thank you,
