+                    Currently, Eclipse does not support SSH port forwarding.
+                    Consequently, if you need to run or debug a remote
+                    application using the host display, you must create a
+                    tunneling connection from outside Eclipse and keep
+                    that connection alive during your work.
+                    For example, in a new terminal, run the following:
+                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     ssh -XY user_name@remote_host_ip
+                    </literallayout>
+                    After running the command, add the command to be executed
+                    in Eclipse's run configuration before the application
+                    as follows:
+                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     export DISPLAY=:10.0
+                    </literallayout>
