X11 Forwarding on Mac. X11 forwarding on Mac is just as easy. Download Quartz and install it as you would any other Mac package. Quartz is another instance of display management. Global Nav Open Menu Global Nav Close Menu; Apple; Shopping Bag +.

What is X11 Forwarding?

X11 Forwarding is what gives you the ability to run GUIs from a server on your own local machine (neat, huh?). For example, you can run Emacs from homework.eecs.tufts.edu from the comfort of your dorm.

How do I use X11?

Simple! All operating systems have a quick process to setup X11 Forwarding. Please see below for specific instructions based on operating system.

X11 Forwarding in Linux/Mac OS X

– For Macs, your best option is to download xQuartz from xQuartz.org. This is free software which will allow you to forward X11 on a Mac.

  • Download the xQuartz DMG, open it, and follow the installation instructions.
  • Run xQuartz from the Applications folder.

– For Linux, depending on your distribution, there may be no pre-requisites.

Connecting With X11 through SSH
  • Connect to your favorite EECS server using ssh, but remember to tell it to forward X by adding the “-X” parameter.
    • Example: ssh –X [username]@homework.eecs.tufts.edu
  • To test to make sure X11 is working properly, run “xeyes” and a simple GUI should appear on the screen.
  • That’s it! Any other application (Emacs, Matlab, etc) that you’d like to run the GUI for, simply start the program and a window will appear.

X11 Forwarding in Windows with MobaXterm

Mac X11 Download For Windows 10

  1. We recommend using MobaXterm for all your Windows X11 Forwarding needs.
  2. Simply download the installer, or run the portable edition, onto your computer.
  3. Follow all setup defaults for the installation.
  4. Run MobaXterm and use the Start local terminal button to begin a session.
  5. SSH to an EECS server as you normally would, but be sure to specify the -Y option. For Example:
    • ssh -Y [username]@[servername].eecs.tufts.edu
  6. You’re now good to run GUI-based applications over ssh!

X11 Forwarding in Windows with PUTTY/Xming

  1. Xming is a lightweight and reliable X11 forwarding utility that can be used in conjuncture with Putty.
  2. Launch Xming: A small program will appear in the taskbar; keep this running for the duration of the session.
  3. Launch PuTTy, an SSH (Secure SHell) client: Start->Programs->PuTTy->PuTTy.
  4. In the left-hand menu, expand “SSH”, open the “X11” menu, and check “Enable X11 Forwarding.” Do not forget this step!
  5. Go back to the “Session” menu, and under “Host Name” type yourusername@linux.cs.tufts.edu, then press Open.
  6. If a security alert pops up, press yes, then type your password into the open shell.
  7. You’re in Linux! Everything, such as “emacs myfile &”, will work just like a Linux lab machine.
    If you want to ssh to another server during your session but want to keep X11 forwarding enabled, you must use the command “ssh -Y servername”.

X11 Forwarding in Windows with Cygwin/X

There are some cases in which Putty simply does not have enough functionality, and a more robust SSH/X11 client is necessary. In these cases, Windows users are best off using Cygwin. While Cygwin is extremely powerful and versatile, it can be a little overwhelming or confusing to setup and use your first time. The steps below will walk you through installing and running X11 Forwarding with Cygwin.

  1. Go to www.cygwin.com and download the latest version.
  2. Run the setup.exe that you downloaded.
  3. Select “Install From Internet” as your download source.
  4. Leave the ‘Root Directory’ as default.
  5. Choose where you want your package files installed.
  6. Leave “Use System Proxy Settings” selected.
  7. Select any Download site, though the top one will be fine.
  8. Leave the default packages selected and change the View to Full.
  9. Use the Search box to search for openssh.
  10. Left-Click openssh: The OpenSSH server and client programs to set it to install the latest version. You can see that the New column has changed from Skip to the current version.
  11. Use the search box once again to search for xinit.
  12. Left-Click xinit: X Org X server launcher so that it switches from Skip to the current version.
  13. Press next to Continue and review.
  14. Note towards the bottom all the xorg packages which will also be installed. These are all necessary.
  15. Press Next to install everything (this may take a few minutes).
  16. Once installed, Open Cygwin to be presented with a terminal window.
  17. Run startx to open a new X11-enabled terminal window.
  18. In the new window, connect to the computer you would like to by using ssh -Y [username]@[hostname] – The “-Y” is required.
  19. Once connected, you’ll be able to run any X-based gui applications in your Cygwin window.

This directory contains binaries for a base distribution and packages to run on macOS. Releases for old Mac OS X systems (through Mac OS X 10.5) and PowerPC Macs can be found in the old directory.

Note: Although we take precautions when assembling binaries, please use the normal precautions with downloaded executables.

Package binaries for R versions older than 3.2.0 are only available from the CRAN archive so users of such versions should adjust the CRAN mirror setting (https://cran-archive.r-project.org) accordingly.

R 4.1.1 'Kick Things' released on 2021/08/10

Please check the SHA1 checksum of the downloaded image to ensure that it has not been tampered with or corrupted during the mirroring process. For example type
openssl sha1 R-4.1.1.pkg
in the Terminal application to print the SHA1 checksum for the R-4.1.1.pkg image. On Mac OS X 10.7 and later you can also validate the signature using
pkgutil --check-signature R-4.1.1.pkg

Latest release:

R-4.1.1.pkg (notarized and signed)
SHA1-hash: d0eed7d0755bc80911acb616508d41e1396f810e
(ca. 86MB)
R 4.1.1 binary for macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) and higher, Intel 64-bit build, signed and notarized package.
Contains R 4.1.1 framework, R.app GUI 1.77 in 64-bit for Intel Macs, Tcl/Tk 8.6.6 X11 libraries and Texinfo 6.7. The latter two components are optional and can be ommitted when choosing 'custom install', they are only needed if you want to use the tcltk R package or build package documentation from sources.

Note: the use of X11 (including tcltk) requires XQuartz to be installed since it is no longer part of OS X. Always re-install XQuartz when upgrading your macOS to a new major version.

This release supports Intel Macs, but it is also known to work using Rosetta2 on M1-based Macs. For native Apple silicon arm64 binary see below.

Important: this release uses Xcode 12.4 and GNU Fortran 8.2. If you wish to compile R packages from sources, you may need to download GNU Fortran 8.2 - see the tools directory.

R-4.1.1-arm64.pkg (notarized and signed)

(ca. 87MB)
R 4.1.1 binary for macOS 11 (Big Sur) and higher, Apple silicon arm64 build, signed and notarized package.
Contains R 4.1.1 framework, R.app GUI 1.77 for Apple silicon Macs (M1 and higher), Tcl/Tk 8.6.11 X11 libraries and Texinfo 6.7.
Important: this version does NOT work on older Intel-based Macs.

Note: the use of X11 (including tcltk) requires XQuartz. Always re-install XQuartz when upgrading your macOS to a new major version.

This release uses Xcode 12.4 and experimental GNU Fortran 11 arm64 fork. If you wish to compile R packages from sources, you may need to download GNU Fortran for arm64 from https://mac.R-project.org/libs-arm64. Any external libraries and tools are expected to live in /opt/R/arm64 to not conflict with Intel-based software and this build will not use /usr/local to avoid such conflicts.
