Hey, all

  I know this question seems dumb, but it really screws me a lot.
Following the handbook, I tried to make my remote X connection work, but
with no luck. Here is the error message.

#setenv DISPLAY my_machine:0.0
#>gvim
Xlib: connection to "my_machine:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
E233: cannot open displayXlib: connection to "my_machine:0.0"
refused by server
Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key


I guess it is because I am using KDM instead XDM, so that the handbook
instruction doesn't work. I am wondering if someone could instruct me a
good reference page. I am using FreeBSD 4.7, KDE 3.0.


Thanks for any information about this.

Cheers,
Ken
