That is what I am using and this used to work before (not RH8) and was wondering if maybe I need to change the numbers. What I am tryiing to do is 'remotely' open up netscape in another system. This means that I go in using telnet or ssh and than (as root) enter the above two lines. I should see Netscape but I don't ..
