Ryan, If I understand your setup correctly you should be able to just call the executables for the tools you are trying to use in the terminal window on your Win-2000 box. I am using X-win on a Windows XP machine to connect to a RH8 box that has X11 forwarding setup and I can call the application, i.e. "gedit", "nautilus", etc in the terminal window and get the graphical interface. You don't need to invoke gnome or kde from the terminal on your windows box to get the gui's of the applications....hope this helps. -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
