Xlib connection

I have done it both ways with the same result. To at least
install
Oracle, I logged in as root and did "xhost +".
Then I logged in as oracle
to install. I was hoping that I could find a way to
configure it so that
just oracle could open a window and leave it that way, but
so far I
haven't found a solution. I just had to open it up for
everyone.
