Disables access control.  It eliminates restrictions
on which client(s) is allowed access to the server.

That's the display number.

The  phrase  "display" is usually used to refer to collection of
monitors that  share  a  common  keyboard  and  pointer  (mouse,
tablet,  etc.).   Most  workstations  tend to only have one key-
board, and therefore, only one display.  Larger, multi-user sys-
tems,  however,  frequently  have  several displays so that more
than one person can be doing graphics work at  once.   To  avoid
confusion,  each display on a machine is assigned a display num-
ber (beginning at 0) when the  X  server  for  that  display  is
started.   The  display number must always be given in a display
name.

Yes, that is the way I do it.
