Hi!

You know something. I didn't try compression for the X forwarding SSH 
session. I'll have to give it a shot tomorrow. I'm on my way to where 
there are no Windows machines. (Yay.)

But I did try changing all the resource settings for the client 
connections. They made absolutely no difference. (The network here is 
very fast.)

Thanks for the suggestion. As I said, I'll give compression a shot tomorrow.

Gilbert
