Re: NX Server and Client X cookie erroor



Hallo,

I failed, too! I am using KANOTIX now.The latest version was released some days ago. I think the versions on knoppix are too old. It is quite fast, btw! But I am useing just a xterm. A friend of mine is using KDE. It works, but the sessions are not closed properly.

Are you using a minidistro, like puppy? I got the same error there, because xauth is not provided!

 ls -l  /usr/bin/xauth /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth /usr/bin/X11/xauth
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 30868 2006-08-12 13:29 /usr/bin/X11/xauth
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 30868 2006-08-12 13:29 /usr/bin/xauth
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 30868 2006-08-12 13:29 /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth

 apt-file search xauth
shows it in package: xbase-clients
apt-get install xbase-clients

installs xauth on debian-like systems!
