I also use Cygwin's X server on my Windows machines but that's only suitable for either starting a new login session via XDM or running single applications through SSH's X11 forwarding, neither of which appears to be what you want. The problem is that you appear to want to attach an X client (an application, in this case KDE) to multiple X servers and X isn't really set up for that. VNC, which has it's client/server relationship the other way around, should be able to provide what you want more easily. HTH, Ross BTW, your mail was horribly mangled. I suggest you fix that if you want more replies. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.7 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFC5Bz59bR4xmappRARAltHAKCL9afKTW/+OBbIaxulY9beZiErNgCgvCrf N5xLoKKKAtJ1G7fE0HwiB3A= =IuY8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
