Thanks very muc
Just to complete it here, one can use secure shell:
in some xterm do
ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] or
ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Then start your favourite X application without specifying the display, i.e.
acroread
ssh will automatically forward the X application to your display, and you do
not have to rely on the (possibly) limited security features of X11. The
network connection is encrypted (as ssh does), so you can do this across
untrusted nets.
