I just want to add another and secure solution: ssh If the sun station is running a sshd daemon you could start a remote session with e.g.: [linux]$ xterm -title Your_University -e ssh \ -l YourUsername sunstation.at.college.edu In this new xtern you can start every X app and the very smart ssh displays it on your Linux maschine. Nice test would be: [sunstation]$ xmessage "I am not here but there" -- Yours <a href="http://www.koeln-online.de/einblick/"> Frank Barknecht Das Koelner Stadt- und Unimagazin >-------------< </a> -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
