You also have to tell your local machine that the remote can access the
display, else the server can't connect to the client.
Can't remember the file to config, haven't done this for awhile.

I want to do this again, with IP-masquerading, I have a 486 behind a 386,
and run X-Win on the 486 only. I want remote computers to connect to the
486 - X-Win only.

Thanks for any help,

Tim.
