   If you are on machine A and telnet to machine B, you can run netscape
on machine B by doing (in the bash/bourne/korn shell):

   export DISPLAY=machine.a.domain.ext:0.0

or in the csh/tcsh shell:

   setenv DISPLAY machine.a.domain.ext:0.0

It will be slightly more complicated if you have more than one display or
monitor attached to the machine you are working on.
