I should have posted more info. Anyway, xhost was done and we get that error. I might add that he uses rlogin and refuses to use ssh. Some people are hard to change. The host he wants to do this to is a RH6.2 machine. He wants to attach to it from Fedora. Steve Bergman sent another option to try. Though the instructions for the host machine was for Fedora, it gives us else something to check. -- Edward M. Croft Sr. Systems Engineer Open Ratings, Inc. 200 West Street Waltham, MA 02451-1121
