Hi there,
I have two machine running RH5.1. One of'em is a PII400+lots of RAM+lots
of programs. The other one is a P75+reasonable RAM+bare Linux+X.

I'd like to run X on P75 and have it managed by the PII. I have tried
"X -query PII.IP", and "X -broadcaast". Using either of them X starts, I
get the `salt&pepper' background and nothing else. Looks to me that the
PII does not answer any of the calls (although there is nothing in
/var/log/messages nor in /var/log/secure). BTW, I can run startx locally
on the P75, change xhost, telnet to the PII, and run any X program; but
that's *not* what I want :-(

I guess it's only a matter of changing a configureation file on the PII to
honour remote X-management request. An ideas??!!

cheers,
Hossein S. Zadeh
