You understand fairly correctly. If the remote system is multi-user and all users are not trusted (by you, personally and by others if it is work related), -X should be used. The problem is that most X apps won't run with -X. :-( Even a simple xclock would not work for me. -- R. Kevin Oberman, Network Engineer Energy Sciences Network (ESnet) Ernest O.
