I can explain that one. Whenever the last client disconnects from the X server, it automatically resets to it's startup state. In the case without the xterm, xhost is both the first and last client, so it sets the permission, but as soon as it exits, the server resets it. By running the xterm, it acts as the anchor for your session and the permission setting stays in effect. -- Chris Bare [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
