The later has a 17' display. What I want to know is how to make the SUN workstation be a client of the PC, so that I can use the SUN's big display to show the PC's X window. For example, I can run FreeBSD's Netscape on the SUN display by set the SUN to be a client of FreeBSD's X window. > Thank you. You wish make Sun not _client_ but _server_ (X Server) for FreeBSD programs. If you have rsh enabled on your FreeBSD then just login to Sun wks, and from xterm (cmdtool etc.) run "xon freebsd-host-name command" If you don't have rsh enable on FreeBSD then go to http://www.defcon1.org/x11ssh.html -- Igor Roboul, Unix System Administrator & Programmer @ sanatorium "Raduga" http://www.brainbench.com/transcript.jsp?pid=304744 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
