Perfect, that works great! It really helps me get a little more
perspective--all I've been able to do so far is text-mode
remote.
At this point, the xclock app is writing to the X server on
alpha, and everybody is using display alpha:0.0, right? At some
point, I would like to get the complete desktop environment from
the remote machine, and be able to switch between displays.
I see that Ryland has posted something to the list, so I'll go
check it. I just wanted to let you know that the X-forwarding
via ssh worked!
