You can *try* to do this: ssh -CX me@remotehost If the machine where your account is running supports X forwarding, and the machine has firefox/mozilla/netscape/konqueror/whatever installed, you can then run the browser. It is likely that the remote server doesn't have X11 installed, though (most hosted servers don't, in my experience). -- ----- stephan@s11n.net http://s11n.net "...pleasure is a grace and is not obedient to the commands of the will." -- Alan W.
