Hi

I have a problem  with .Xauthority file 
Under debian I log in with user account 
I suppose a cookie is generated by the X server and
the user .Xauthority file is updated
The problem is that the root  .Xauthority file is not
updated . Therefore the DISPLAY is not positionned

So I have several questions 
- what can I do to update root  .Xauthority file
automatically
- where can I position the DISPLAY 
- about the magic cookie, how it is generated ? where
does the X server store it and  which process generate
the .Xauthority file ? in a network are the
transaction between server and client encrypted to
compare the magic cookie ?

if someone can take the time to help a rookie 

Regards
