[Error messages from John] [Branden -- will the Xwrapper.config 'console' or 'root' option prevent client connections from other hosts? Or does this effect only who can run X locally, as I hope it does? :]
Bummer about not being able to use ssh. (Though I am surprised the firewall would let X connections work, but not ssh! If I had to firewall only one, I would have chosen differently. :) I also fear I wasn't clear in my previous email -- remove the whole '-nolisten tcp' bit, including the 'tcp'. You will either need to figure out how the MIT magic cookies work, or use the xhost +host options (or xauth, which I think is the magic cookies) to enable the connections from elsewhere. HTH. :) * John K.
