This is because the box running IP Masq and doen't have a proxy for X forwarding built in. I believe (from memory) that one of the things the FAQ mentions is that there in no X proxy for IP Masq written yet. The only other option I can think of is to connect to the box you want to run the X app from with ssh and run the app through that. This will work (I believe) because ssh tunnels the X session through it. If you haven't played with SSH yet you should... get the package from one of the non-us mirrors and install it.... it's *much* better then telnet where you are vulnrable to people sniffing your password. > I think I should probably reconfigure X-Windows on my first machine to be > able to do it. I don't think this is an X configuration issue. It is an IP Masq issue. Adam. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
