I do it at work all the time, but I use ksh on IRIX there and I think the display command is different. In any case on the machine you want to view the output on use the command: xhost + machinename This allows the machine access to your X server. On the one you want to run the program log in with telnet or ssh and set the DISPLAY variable to your other machine and then execute the program and it should pop up in front of you. I wish I could remember how to set the display in bash. . .sorry I don't do it at home enough. -- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Darren R.
