How are you connecting to the *nix box? If you're using an SSH client, you could just enable X11 port forwarding (on both the client and server), and let SSH handle the DISPLAY variable assignemnt. Not to mention, your X traffic can then come back thru any ACLs/FW policies that might otherwise block standard :60xx X traffic. --daxbert To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
