You can do this with X since the local machine is the server, so you do a login "bacwards". Telnet, rsh, ssh... are clients... and if you are running a client you already logged somewhere... If you create a user that automatically connect to the remote machine (via user's startup scripts) isn't acceptable??? orlando Marc wrote: > > maybe it is possible to configure one of your virtual consoles as a login > screen on the remote machine.
