Greetings.
I found out this repo while trying to configure a x11 server with wsl2. From my research, this repo is one of the main sources that people are currently pointing to when trying to help others.
That said, I had a problem discovering which port I needed to add in the firewall rule ,I created the rule for port 6000, but after enabling firewall logs, I discovered that the server was running in 6001.
I also had a problem with the
DISPLAYvariable, my x server was running on :1.0 instead of :0.0.I think that a mini-guide of how to enable firewall logs and a disclaimer to check the x server connection url would be very helpful to people coming to this repository with this kind of problem, so before I open a PR, I wanted to know if this kind of information is in the scope of this repo.
@fquinner commented on GitHub (Jan 5, 2022):
Just replaced:
TCP port 6000 (most likely)
With:
TCP port 6000 (most likely, but verify with display number / X11 server documentation before continuing)
I think that's all that realistically we can do here without documenting every X11 server which I would rather avoid. Thanks for pointing out.
