[Mun] Yes, I do want to kick off a graphical tool; therefore, as William & Reuti suggest, using qrsh and ssh -X/sshd -I may be route to go. Unfortunately, I'm not too familiar with setting up ssh for SGE and thus have some research to do. > Having the rsh_command and rsh_daemon set up using ssh -X/sshd -i (as in > ssh tight integration) lets > you pass commands in a simpler way.

Therefore, I will pursue the ssh -X technique next.
