In my situation, I run KDE or Gnome from my windows box. I am using exceed as my X server on my desktop. I then ssh to my Linux box and run: /etc/X11/xdm/Xsession& And that gets me KDE or gnome at my desk. Again, situation is different, but the concepts should apply.

I have two systems a big system down the hall and a workstation at my desk. I do not want to use VNC, but I believe there this approach is a better way. So I want to use the workstation as an Xterminal. I remember the last time I did this a few years ago all I had to do was execute a command or two. What I am saying is I forgot how to do this. I have done research on the web but have come up empty because everything I read were to complex for such a simple task, or did not work. I have gotten xclock and the xterm program to work, for example to work but I cannot remember how to bring up the desktop environment. I have set the DISPLAY variable to FQDN:0.0 on the big system, I believe the question I am asking what do I run and on which system, to get the desktop on the workstation? jim -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
