If the DISPLAY var is set (as is the case if someone uses ssh from an X11 
terminal to login) an up2date is run with the --nox switch from the 
command line, up2date ignores the --nox switch.

[root@ats-bwlf-111a root]# up2date --nox -u up2date
connect localhost port 6010: Connection refused
[root@ats-bwlf-111a root]# export DISPLAY=""
[root@ats-bwlf-111a root]# up2date --nox -u up2date
