It looks like an X problem. No response from the X lists. All this started after I had to switch to DHCP with ATT. It looks like I have more of an X problem than an SSH problem. Here is part of script as it logs "startx" and then I kill it: Script started on Fri Dec 14 18:28:12 2001 xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "c888746-a.attbi.com:0" in "list" command xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "c888746-a.attbi.com:0" in "add" command xauth: (argv):1: bad display name "c888746-a.attbi.com:0" in "remove" command Script done on Fri Dec 14 18:28:40 2001 But here is the output from "xauth list": c888746-a.attbi.com/unix:0 MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 e0cae68d99242..... Notice the /unix is not present in the startx script. I really have no idea how to fix this.
