hi folks, I got xfee86 3.2 on my system and xdm running. How can I setup x to run remote x-servers on other debian machines. there was a file in/etc/X11/Xsession which i have set so that anybody can use the xserver. What else do i need to do? thanks in advance. Paul -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM

X question: is there a .Xhosts?

I'm sorry, but it seems I don't know where to look in the docs. I'm looking for the equivalent of the .xhosts file so I can open xwindows from other machines on this one. I'll come back and ask about how to point the xserver to grab the .openwin-init and other various files from the users home d
