Anyway, on the machie you want to display the X graphics do % xhost +foo.my.net where "foo.my.net" is the name of the other machine. To run an X application on the other machine that you want to display on yours % setenv DISPLAY bar.my.net:0 % xv & or % DISPLAY=bar.my.net:0 % export DISPLAY % xv & Note that if you plan to start xterm windows or emacs over a modem line it is *much* faster to start local xterm windows and do a rlogin in that window. You then start thing like emacs in that window in text mode "emacs -nw". /kgb
