IIRC specifying a hostname in the DISPLAY variable implicates that X should use network transport to display the window - but X doesn't accept network connections by default these days. Just setting a display number without a hostname implicates using direct socket communication on the host where the application is launched. This is not specific to KDE however, but basic X11-foo - the X11 manpages have lots of information on these things. -- ,_, | Michael Nottebrock | [EMAIL PROTECTED] (/^ ^\) | FreeBSD - The Power to Serve | http://www.freebsd.org \u/ | K Desktop Environment on FreeBSD | http://freebsd.kde.org
