Yep, sure surprised me the first few times ! It comes up in a dialogue box with an OK button. The text is "The remote command "/usr/X11/bin/xterm" could not be executed, winsock error number was 10061." I'm assuming it's a 'connection refused' error based on a google search. One identical MacX problem popped up in a post, but the only answer was a suggestion that it sounded like some security issue on the linux side, maybe to do with rsh or rexec. Do these need to be enbled ? Or disabled ? Or set up somehow ? cheers, Paul -- MaX-list is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... / Buy books, CDs, videos, and more from Amazon.com \ / <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect-home/lowendmac> \ Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> MaX-list info: <http://lowendmac.com/linux/max.shtml> Send list messages to: <mailto:max-list@;mail.maclaunch.com> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:max-list-off@;mail.maclaunch.com> For digest mode, email: <mailto:max-list-digest@;mail.maclaunch.com> Subscription questions: <mailto:listmom@;lowendmac.com> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/max-list%40mail.maclaunch.com/> --------------------------------------------------------------- >The Think Different Store http://www.ThinkDifferentStore.com ---------------------------------------------------------------
