Re: [cobalt-developers] Raq3 and Xwindow surprise with Oracle



We're trying to figure out how to use x-window to access a Cobalt via the
Internet - it is co-located at an ISP, so whilst we can telnet and ftp, how
do we provide DISPLAY with a dynamically allocated IP address at our remote
Win98 machine?

Any suggestions would be really welcome...
