Hi

Thanks for the reply. Sorry I guess I didn't make myself clear, lets
say we have teh following:

host1                                 host2

I want the user on host2 to ssh to host1, then run say gedit which
will opne up on the xdisplay the user has running on host1. Do you
know how to do this?

Thanks
Dan
