Hi! I've been playing around xauth a little just now, and I'm a bit curious about the 'generate' command. I've been able to do about what I want with this command: file=`mktemp /tmp/xauthXXXXXX` xauth -f "$file" generate :0 . untrusted timeout 120 However, having to store the cookie to a file and then just fetch it, transmit it and delete the file again feels a bit awkward. Isn't it possible to just get the cookie on stdout? Also, I have some questions about some of the options. Is it possible to get one-shot cookies? Where can I get information about how application groups work? Thanks for your time!
