Yes, it's a STREAMS pipe, used for file descriptor passing to get a filehandle on a pipe to the Xserver for the local connection. Your best bet for info on how this works is to look at the XFree86 code which emulates SCO's X-Server connection methods. Then you've only gotta figure out how to do it on FreeBSD.. :-) Or: try setting your $DISPLAY to something that implies a TCP/IP connection to the server instead of a local connection.. ie: setenv DISPLAY my.full.fqdn:0 -Peter >> Charles Henrich Michigan State University henrich@crh.cl.msu.edu >-- >]] Mike Smith, Software Engineer msmith@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ >]] Genesis Software genesis@atrad.adelaide.edu.au [[ >]] High-speed data acquisition and (GSM mobile) 041-122-496 [[ >]] realtime instrument control (ph/fax) +61-8-267-3039 [[ >]] My car has "demand start" -Terry Lambert UNIX: live FreeBSD or die!
