And for educational purposes, a semi-secure way to accomplish the same is with xauth. xauth list on the local machine, xauth add machinename:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 <cookie>. Or xauth merge .Xauthority (which you need to copy over if it's a different machine) Use SSH X forwarding if you can, though. -- Pekka Pietikainen -- fedora-test-list mailing list [email protected] http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
