Try: ssh -X [EMAIL PROTECTED] emacs /home/user/documents/importantpaper It's been a while since I've used it, that might be bad advice. Another thought, and one I do use is tightvncserver - you can access a remote desktop via java enabled web browser: mozilla http://domain.here.com:5801 Prior to that, you login on domain.here.com as aguax and run "tightvncserver :1" at which point it should fork to the background and aguax could logoff. VNC will remain running. Somewhere in the docs is a method to do this through /etc/inittab. I use guarddog as an iptables fontend, and it requires special treatment for VNC - a User defined rule is needed for port 5801. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
