RE: Netscape error

[FRANCK.LEGALL@TTE.thomson-csf.com]

Hi,

This problem often occurs when somenone who is different from the person from
 who opened the Xsession try to run an X application.: To run an X
 application, you must have rights to dispay it. This can be done using
the xhost
command.

Sorry, my english is so poor that I am not sure to be really clear.

An example :
        I open a Xsession with 'franck' loggin
        I try to run Netscape as 'root', it doesn't work (root doesn't have
rights to display on franck loggin screen)
        As franck, I do 'xhost +'
        Now, I can run and display netscape as root.

Hope this help
Franck
