There is a certain piece of software that, due to lack of good support, does
not compile on FreeBSD. However, it will compile on my roommate's Slackware
(the software was designed for Redhat). It uses the X Windows system, so,
from what I understand, I should be able to run it from his X client and
make it display on my X server. However, when I attempt to do this, I
recieve the following error:

Xlib: connection to "pillbox.palisor.yi.org:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
showeq: cannot connect to X server pillbox.palisor.yi.org:0.0

How do I give it permission to run on the display?
