I am running woody and have two shells open in X.  One is su'ed to root

When I run an X program from the su'ed shell I get an errot "cannot
connect" It looks alot like it would if I had not done xhost +. Any
thoughts?

XF86v4 denies tcpip connects by default.

*Don't* use xhost.

*Do* use ssh.

See list over past two months for prior discussion on this topic.
