In that case what will running 'xhost 127.0.0.1' on > the remote system do? (I know what xhost does, I just don't see what > it has to do with running xwinclip). The xserver running on the windows host is setup to accept only clients from the session started by xdm. xhost now tells the server (which is on the windows computer) to allow connections from local (to the xserver) clients. This means the xhost 127.0.0.1 tells the xserver to accept connections from the windows host. After that you can start xwinclip on the windows host. bye ago NP: Letzte Instanz - Glockenrequiem -- Alexander.Gottwald@informatik.tu-chemnitz.de http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
