That's well and good, but the SxS is no longer Caldera specific. Perhaps 
when I get some time, I'll try out all the techniques referenced here 
and write up a generic SxS on it. I can test all with Mandrake 8.0, 
Caldera eD2.4 and RedmondLinux (Build 35). The biggest obstacle will be 
that elusive time thing ;)

Then again, I wonder if there's a How-To already in existence at LDP...
I'll read this, http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/mini/Remote-X-Apps.html, 
at first glance it looks promising.

Regards,
Tim

PS Now that the SxS is distro-agnostic, what is the REAL difference between it, and 
the How-To's?
