I have tried that thank you.
But there is one thing that it doesn't do that I want.
*one persistant desktop per user accessable from seperate hosts*.
If you use the inetd trick, you can get several sessions with the same user,
and if you want to login from another host you get a different instance of
your desktop and apps.
The only way I've been able to get this is with one port per user, and tell
my users what port is theirs, and load all of the user's desktops on startup
of the server (a linux "desktop" server to win32 clients).
If you have more suggestions I'm all ears (or eyes ;).
