I understand that, we use a very strict host access control list here on all Xserver based devices/products
Obviously not, as you could connect to another display.
I just thought it was interesting that xkill behaved in that manner. Initally I was under the impression that it would function like a graphical kill, but apparently that is not the case.
I'm not sure what you call "graphical kill", but once the connection tp the X server is cut, there is nothing than the client can do, apart from saving its data and exiting nicely. Most client just die on SIGPIPE. ___________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? -- Une adresse @yahoo.fr gratuite et en français ! Yahoo! Mail : http://fr.mail.yahoo.com
