I'm not sure of any program that encrypts X traffic. Maybe someone else knows more about this. Just beware: If you log into an X-terminal, and then do ssh to another host, the communication between the terminal and the login host is not protected by ssh. So your ssh password is transmitted in cleartext! -- G. ``Iggy'' Geens - ICQ: #64109250 Home: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Work: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> WWW: http://users.pandora.be/guy.geens/ `I want quality, not quantity.
