given me several other things to play with!  Thanks Angus.... 

"if you really want to export the entire desktop, you could use
something designed for that, like VNC (see vncserver/xvncviewer)."

I really want my Mandrake box to run a full Xsession on my RedHat desktop.  
Although a few other questions have cropped up, will my mouse and keyboard be 
able to effect changes in the "imported" Xsession; ie willmouse and keyboard 
work seemlessly on both desktops?

I'm going to be doing to some reading on xnest and vncserver over the weekend 
so I'll probably fire more questions into the ring after a little research. 

James Gregory also gave me some food for thought and I have knocked the 
session numbers back up to the default 16 in the gdm.conf file.  If your 
reading this James, have you tried WinAXe?  

Both James and Angus seem to be moving toward xnest for what I want to do so 
I'llbe focusing on that this weekend.

Wish me luck and  Thanks all, feel free to keep dropping thoughts ..

Mick
