Is there a way to forward X11 client/server data (that would normally go straight to the X11 server) through a modem to an X server on a host on the other side? Is it a matter of finding out which socket the X server listens on (BTW, what address DOES it listen on?), and then creating a process to "cat" from that port through the modem (and then "cat" from the modem on the other side to the address the remote X server is listening on? If it was that simple... -Eric
