Normally, to use X over the net, you run an X server on the PC where you want the input/output to happen (the Windows PC in your case). You could install Cygwin (http://cygwin.com) and XFree (http://x.cygwin.com) on the Windows PC. Another way is to set up a vnc server on debian machine and use a vnc viewer on the windows machine. best regards Andreas Janssen -- Andreas Janssen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> PGP-Key-ID: 0xDC801674 ICQ #17079270 Registered Linux User #267976 http://www.andreas-janssen.de/debian-tipps.html -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
