Xephyr cannot open host display. Is DISPLAY set?

This is not strange to me. Why should I export DISPLAY=IP:2 at that 
point when my DISPLAY is at localhost:10.0? localhost:10.0 is the 
display that Xephyr should *use*, while :2 is the display that Xephyr 
*offers*. That's why tutorials ask me to start-xephyr.sh and then 
"export DISPLAY=:2" followed by af-sb-init.sh.

Top posting confuses me :-)
