So...here's my question. I need to be able to open an X session (complete with KDE and all) from a Win2k Box. I've got Xmanager for Win2k, and I can connect and get an xterm session via ssh, but when I type startx, it starts up X on the console. I would have thought it would have grabbed the name/number of the display I was currently logged into to send the output to. Anyone know how I can do this, or a good site with a how-to?
