I'd imagine this would be fairly simple since I got it to work from Xmanager for Windows...but I'm having difficulties. I have 2 boxes, both BSD (one FreeBSD, one OpenBSD). The FreeBSD box has a full blown install of X with KDE and all kinds of stuff, the OpenBSD just has a basic X installed with xdm. I'd like to be able to use the OpenBSD box as a display for the FreeBSD box. I thought I'd just be able to ssh into the FreeBSD box and run xmms, xcalc, xterm, whatever I wanted...but no dice. Can someone help me out? Thanks, --Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
