i did finally get ssh to forwared X, but it only worked with ssh -Y [host] im not sure yet why ssh -X doesnt work, but ive not yet finished reading about the ins and outs of what security settings im overriding with the -Y. i was able to start xclock as a test. but what i would really like to be able to accomplish, would be to get the entire 'startx' to work over an ssh session, and have it open as another window on my desktop. cheers, -- Jonathan Horne http://dfwlpiki.dfwlp.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
