Victor,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.  I think I solved the immediate problem.  I didn't realize I could simpley X -query <hostname> :2 and get a remote client
to display on a second tty.  It looks like Xwrapper had been a secuity fix.  I don't know the secuity issues involved with the way I'm doing things right
now.  I'll have to investigate.

Steve
