How do I run any X windows application, specifically Netscape on the remote machine to which I am connected by TELNET?
Surely not through telnet. It might get fired up if you start X from command line and then start netscape. But you won't be able to see anything. Try VNC. It comes with RH 7.1

Actually, netscape runs very well over telnet. That's the whole concept of Xclients and Xservers. Netscape on the remote machine is the Xclient. It connects to the Xserver on the local machine for its user input/output.
localmachine> xhost +remotemachine localmachine> telnet remotemachine remotemachine> export DISPLAY=localmachine:0 remotemachine> netscape &
works perfectly, and the same with other X apps.

Hi,
Can I run Netscape on a 286/386-Diskless with 4MB RAM ?
If so can someone direct me to the relevant pages...
I guess I will have to change only the Monitors.. The current 286/386 work on Mono[softwhite] monitors. I can simply upgrade to MonoVGA.

286 - No, Linux is a 32 bit OS. 386 - yes, but AFAIK, X will not run under 4 MB RAM.

An acronym for "As far as I know".
WHat is the minimum RAM ??
I've run it under 16 MB on a 486, but maybe 8 MB would work as well. Not sure though, maybe other list members could contribute.

I have run Netscape on a AMD 80386DX 40Mhz with 8Mb of RAM. I think I used Fvwm. The load process took almost 3-5 minutes with tremendous swapping. After words every new window or new dialog box elicited more swapping. Not worth for serious work. Maybe if you use Opera, which is said to be much lighter... (never used it myself).
quasi p.s. Also as an aside, compiling the kernel had taken me almost 3-4 hours. (and the kernel source used to be much smaller that time)

If you run netscape on a powerful server, and only export the display to the 386, it will run very smoothly. Everything will be fast. Even staroffice can be run smoothly. Try it. 386 with 4 MB RAM. It will work.

Same as the Xserver mail posted last week.

If X runs, then netscape will.
diskless -> xhost +host_with_netscape diskless -> telnet host_with_netscape host_with_netscape -> export DISPLAY=diskless:0 host_with_netscape -> netscape &

Check under mailman's bin directory. The filenames are obvious. Run any without parameters and help will be printed. Alternatively, view the file. The help text is near the top.
