In answer to your questions. Yes on SSH ... just check your config files in /etc/ssh and make sure forward X11 is set to yes. (should be by default.) To verify ssh to the box and type xclock. If the clock pops up your working. (note this won't work coming from a winders box.) As for VPN. You don't need one on a LAN, since your are already on the LAN. the rpms for tightvnc are in the distro just run server on one box. client on the other and go. It's really that easy. James
