I have a friend in England with the following problem.  He uses KDE.  I've seen
a discussion on this in the past but cannot locate anything in the archives.

Does anyone have a quick explanation of what's going on??

>From my friend Nick:
>OK, unless I set xhost +localhost prior to dialing-up, I cannot start any

>somewhere. Also, when a user telnets in, this error message appears:-
>
>xhost: unable to open display ""
>
>Now, I have also noticed that when I shutdown the last message reported from
>somewhere (it is displayed on the screen, but not in
>sys logs?) is:-
>
>stdin: is not a tty
>
>Now, after a bit of poking around, I believe these are related.

>Ideas, anyone?
