TCP 6000, I think. But since X implies unix, I think you'd be better off tunneling it though SSH instead of PPTP. It's a built-in configuration for SSH, and it works beautifully. If I remember correctly, it automatically sets the DISPLAY environment variable according to the (possibly dynamic) IP of the remote host. So, all you have to do is SSH from the remote pc to the X server, and start the X app. (And you'll probably need some sort of shell login to the server anyway, right?) -- Alex Howansky Wankwood Associates http://www.wankwood.com/
