There is no way to prevent this. If the remote host reboots, you'll loose all session information anyway since the XServer is only the display. Image you are working locally with a computer and it resets. Do you expect that you can still see what was last on the graphiccard? The same is with the XServer. It only displays what the program wanted to show you. NP: Apoptygma Berzerk - Snutt 7 -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
