segmentation fault while opening grads

[Satyaban BishoyiRatna]

Hi Grads-user,
   Few days back it came to discussion about login one computer to another computer to operate grads using SSH. somebody advised to use protocol layer called X11 forwarding.
      can anybody tell me how to use this X11 for connecting to other machine to work with grads.
     Thanking you.
Regards
Satyaban
