If you're already running gnome on your desktop machine you probably are running GDM as well. You can run the XDMCP chooser from within GDM and you'll get a listing of all available X servers on the network. Then you can just click on the appropriate machine and log in. (You'll still need to set up the server to allow XDMCP connections of course.) -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY! Encrypted mail preferred.
