Actually, I failed to mention that I'm trying to run X apps on my computer
at work from my Linux server that is at home. At work, I have to go through
a proxy server first. I can telnet to my computer at home, but I want to run
X apps also. Will VNC do this. I can't seem to figure out how to get it do
go through the proxy.
