In this case, Exceed on your desktops are the servers, the applications on your Linux Box are the clients. Applications on the Linux Box connect to the Server on a user's desktop on port 6000. If there are high numbered ports being used on the Linux box, it is very likely something else that is useing the ports. type: netstat --ip -l -p -e as root on the Linux Box to see who is running what program listening on what port. There may be steadily increasing-source-ported out-going connections if your users use webbrowsers on the Linux Box and do not log out each night. This shouldn't interfere with your system anyways. > I tried killing the X server (CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE).

It's Probably not X useing these ports. _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
