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.
