Mikes problem triggered me. I'd like to start saying that the this 6010 usage by ssh-x11 is just as legimit as the vnc usage of the same port. As far as I've looked, the port is used for X11 and that's what its reserved for. I'm not sure there is a real (minimized, restricted) X11 server behind the port (not tested) but there could/should be. _______________________________________________ VNC-List mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.realvnc.com/mailman/listinfo/vnc-list
