change IDE-wide options
1. In the NetBeans IDE, click Tools, then Options, then Advanced Options.
2. To expand the tree, click on the key next to IDE Configuration, then the key next to ServerAndExternalToolSettings.

The options in the left column are properties you can set on the remote server. To do so, click on the option in either the left or right column, and select a value from the drop down menu.
Note The Use Xterm for Compile, Use Xterm for Execution, and X Display Device Number properties can be set IDE-wide, per-filesystem, or per-file.
