I was thinking about proposing to add it to xbase-clients but the response was not very enthusiastic. So yes, maybe I'll package it. Would you be interested about packaging it? > Is there something similar for remote X session ? for remote X sessions you should use ssh. For instance: $ slogin -X -l foo remote.dom The -X activates X forwarding if it is not the default (it's not on Debian). With -X the remote application will see a $DISPLAY value that looks like "remote.com:15". This is in fact handled byt the ssh server which will forward all such X requests to your local slogin process which will then send them to your X server. This means the remote application communicates with your X server via an encrypted communication channel, it's pretty sweet. Of course, on the remote end, access to this "remote.com:15" is subject to an xauth-style authentication mechanism. So here too sux can come in handy. -- Francois Gouget [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://fgouget.free.fr/ The software said it requires Win95 or better, so I installed Linux.
