Last I heard, xhost and X forwarding over ssh were unrelated. You only need one or the other, and I would recommend using the ssh solution, as xhost is rather easily exploitable. (More practically, if you've got the spare CPU cycles available, you can have ssh compress the data stream, which is a Good Thing if you run into problems with the amount of network bandwidth used by your video stream.) -- When we reduce our own liberties to stop terrorism, the terrorists have already won. - reverius Innocence is no protection when governments go bad. - Tom Swiss
