And that STILL doesn't address the OP's question about getting X -query hostname to work. ssh'ing to the machine with X11 forwarding enabled and launching an xterm isn't anywhere near the same thing as a full remote X KDE session into the remote machine.
No, its not, but again, I was using xterm merely as an example and I did mention that you could start any X application.
Including /opt/kde3/bin/startkde if you want a full screen KDE session remotely.
Yes, I realize it did not answer his question about query hostname as the thread had taken a turn from that (obviating the need to do so with ssh).
I don't quite entirely follow here, I thought the thread took a turn *to* X - -query, not away from it, but...
Its ok Jarod, the people wanting this advice have already replied off list, just ignore my nattering....
...as long as everyone has the information they're after, all is well that ends well. I tend not to ignore anything anyone says if I'm into the topic. - -- Jarod C.
