I have it working now, exactly as you have said in your email. It was my mistake, not reading throroughly. My bin dir is under /usr rather than /usr/local.
I am using RH6.2 using KDE. It is working beautifully. I have even gone so far as to modiify the resolution settings so that I can fit the whole lot on my screen without scrolling. (1024x768 on a 1024x768 screen results in scrolling, so I have set this to 1000x700, on my laptop, 1400x1050, I have set this to 1390x990. Works a treat. No scrolling.) The only thing now is though, if you press the X, it doesn't ask you if you want to logout, you lose your whole session. Also, the machine reboot doesn't tell you either. It just kills your session. Perhaps a future enhancement would be to detect what OS you are connected to, then retreive the relevant messages so that work is not lost. I also found out why it was going slow on my machine. My firewall seems to be slowing all the traffic down. I think I will be using Linux for quite a while now I can use it under Windows. Still a lot to learn though. The files that you have sent, with your permission, I would like to do an article on my site (not a busy site, yet!!!) to let people know how to set it up on RH. Then when this Q comes up again, I can send people to the article. Regards.
