In-Reply-To: <01BEC215.87FF2660@yeti.ssimicro.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG The starnet.com offering is a good solid server. There is a freeware X server associated with some GIS software. The server is called "mix", last I checked there were no access controls in the server, which is bad if you're connected to a hostile network, eg. the Internet. Check freshmeat.net, there should be pointers to a java X server floating around. Also look into "vnc", also indexed at freshmeat.
