I don't think so: one can use xterm without xauth (if one doesn't use ssh). Moreover openssh-server suggests xbase-clients (I thought everyone who uses X11 had that), which depends on xauth. But perhaps openssh-server should recommend xauth. -- Vincent Lefèvre <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.org/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.org/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arenaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
