I'm not sure why xhost behaves as it does and was hoping someone could tell me.
As a normal user, if I su to root, I can run just about everything in X -- emacs, galeon, netscape. But not up2date. So, as a normal user, I can type xhost +localhost and now, when I su root, I can also run up2date. So, my question is, why can root only run somethings and not others? Also, is there a better alternative then using xhost to be able to do this? I seem to recall hearing there was a better way, but I don't recall what it is. thanks, blake _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
