Does anyone know how Mac X1.1 makes a connection to the client??^? I am unable use MacX's remote command facility in order to connect to a system running System V.3, X11R3. The client does not allow a connection to be made. I have no problem at all connecting with a system running SunOs. Any ideas??? Pedro P.S. I AM able to telnet to the V.3 client, and run an xterm back to the Mac (under MacOS). It is in having MacX initiate the remote command that everything gets hosed. -- Pedro J.

MacX uses rexecd to make connections to client programs. If you are having trouble, it is probably due to a permissions problem (check the .rhosts file). Mike Bell

The rexec program uses the .netrc, but there is no file for the daemon. pr -- Pete Resnick (...so what is a mojo, and why would one be rising?)
