Following & trying to adapt a howto @,

http://etbe.coker.com.au/2007/01/07/xephyr/

I'm failing to make the connection -- problems with DISPLAY variables,
but not certain :-/

I'm not exactly sure, but it looks like connections are to be done using
TCP sockets:
+ DISPLAY=192.168.1.6:2
+ ssh -F /usr/local/etc/ssh/ssh_config -l root kde_domu.mydomain.com twm
+ /usr/X11R6/bin/Xephyr :2 -auth /var/root/.Xauth-Xephyr -reset
-terminate -screen 1280x1024
Xlib: No protocol specified

TCP sockets are off by default for added security, you have to enable
them in /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager:DISPLAYMANAGER_XSERVER_TCP_PORT_6000_OPEN

Just an idea, though.

Matthias
