Thank you, MIX works fine.... Last question: Is there a way I can remotely do the setenv DISPLAY along with the xterm command without having to log in the FreeBSD box? That is using a script like file that would do the automatic execution of the telnet login, setenv & start xterm. Regards, ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Jean-Marc Beaudoin Analyste technique V.I.P.
