It's better to do a >xhost <specific.remote.host> This will allow only the host that you specify to access your display. Quite a bit safer. It's still rather dangerous, as it doesn't see what account on the remote host is accessing your display. It just lets all users on that specific host display X apps on your screen. xauth is better, but I don't know how to use it. noah PGP public key available at http://lynx.dac.neu.edu/home/httpd/n/nmeyerha/mail.html or by 'finger -l [EMAIL PROTECTED]' -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.2 iQCVAwUBNWIEHYdCcpBjGWoFAQED/wP/fvzRMisTSZi9pQnXHHi3dD1uXvzG7eOc LKbf/XqOVPKX5qG/8kDbID2jWZIjUWqlxskk6qmYqrI+NBc+HkgZdB0ZC1Px9j5J hvQfVl/DxaIDvBrfxd8pttWkCCZIzeAD05dxoQRwSpxGyHnRByQ6tfdCAqy51od8 5E30WmKaHZw= =sLuJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
