I've the following two lines in Xaccess * LISTEN xx.xx.xx.xx where xx is the server ip. So it should give access to any server to xdm. I also notice these errors in xdm.log: xdm error (pid 9961): server open failed for myhost:0, giving up xdm error (pid 4191): Display myhost:0 cannot be opened xdm error (pid 4191): Display myhost:0 is being disabled where myhost is the nodename of L. I also realsed I might not need xdmcp, as I seem to be able to run graphical apps on S with ssh X11 forwarding. In which case all I need are the actual applications I run, e.g xterm or xpdf. So your initial responce to my question makes sense to me now. many thanks anton -- Anton Shterenlikht Room 2.6, Queen's Building Mech Eng Dept Bristol University University Walk, Bristol BS8 1TR, UK Tel: +44 (0)117 928 8233 Fax: +44 (0)117 929 4423 ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

I have 2 FBSD boxes: a server with no graphics card (S) and a laptop (L). I want to run X applications on S and see the results on L. The applications I run on S are typically xpdf, gs, xfig, display, firefox, etc. While I could install ports/xorg on both boxes, this is probably excessive.

Put: X_WINDOW_SYSTEM=xorg into /etc/make.conf and try again. FreeBSD 4.X defaults to using XFree86-4, and you have to tell it you specifically want the X.Org stuff.

Xorg Install
Hey all, I'm currently trying to install X.Org onto my FreeBSD 4.10 machine but am running into trouble. I followed the instructions in /usr/ports/UPDATING but to no avail. Basically, I deleted XFree and imake using pkg_deinstall -f XFree\* imake\* and then I go to /usr/ports/x11/xorg and type make install. Instead of installing, I get the following message: ===> xorg-6.7.0_1 is part of X.Org. for switching to X.Org, read UPDATING entry 20040723 If I try make install clean, I get a bunch of "cleaning for" messages. Xorg does not install/compile at all when I try make install. If I try to locate xorg, it only shows up in ports (i.e. xorgconfig, etc... are not found by locate). I was wondering if I was doing anything wrong? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
