Error 111 is `Connection refused'. You have to tell your X server to allow your Debian machine to connect to it. If you have no concerns about security (with respect to other people getting access to your X server) you can run `xhost +' on it, which will allow any client to have access to it. If you have security concerns, transport the .Xauthority file from the Mac to the Debian machine and run `xauth merge <Mac_Xauthority>'. -- Oliver Elphick [EMAIL PROTECTED] Isle of Wight http://www.lfix.co.uk/oliver PGP key from public servers; key ID 32B8FAA1 Unsolicited email advertisements are not welcome; any person sending such will be invoiced for telephone time used in downloading together with a £25 administration charge. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
