The main thing is to get a few environment parameters set so that
the command aips will run START_AIPS. I put
export AIPS_ROOT=.... where ... is my root area
. $AIPS_ROOT/LOGIN.SH
into my .bashrc file so that they are set when I log in.

Your XWindows/operating system does not recognize localhost:0 as your
own computer. This is an operating system installation error but not
one I can fix for you - we put some guess in the FAQ but we are not
certain what the origin of this error actually is. For the 31DEC04
version I have made a revision to START_TVSERVERS which I attach. Put
this file in $AIPS_ROOT correcting the definition of AIPS_ROOT near
the beginning and making it executable:
