Remember: your thin client is *ONLY* acting as a display device: the gnome desktop, and all the applications you launch under it, are running on the server. The easist way to find out your terminal's ID is to look at your display environment variable. It'll look something like: $ echo $DISPLAY ws005.ltsp:0.0 or some such likeness. Then, it's just a matter of looking up the host IP of ws005.ltsp. It'll either be in your dns setup (if you configured that) or, more likely, in your /etc/hosts file. Scott -- (o_ Scott L.
