Hi,
Thanks everyone for your replies.
Ok, I'll try to have machineB listening for incoming connections.
where is the '-nolisten tcp' is defined?
I start my X with startx, and I've looked into /usr/bin/startx, /etc/X11/
xinit/xinitrc, and /etc/X11/Xsession, but haven't find where the '-
nolisten tcp' is defined yet.
Please help.
Thanks
$ grep defaultserver /usr/bin/startx
defaultserver=/usr/bin/X
defaultserverargs=""
server=$defaultserver
serverargs=$defaultserverargs
$ grep server.*serverargs /usr/bin/startx
. . .
serverargs=$defaultserverargs
serverargs=${serverargs}" -auth "${xserverauthfile}
xinit "$client" $clientargs -- "$server" $display $serverargs
