Re: reflection x

No but you can rlogin, remsh, or telnet
into other systems.

Re: reflection x

I just tried it on my system and the second attempt to load Relections just brings the first back up.

Re: reflection x

I am not sure what you are asking. Do you want to full screen CDE sessions on one PC? Do you want multiple windows from different apps appearing on your PC? Certainly you can have multiple windows open either from the same UNIX system or from different UNIX systems all at once. Just set Reflection X's server to Multiple windows instead of a Single window. From the UNIX systems, export your display and start sending programs to it. I ususally test like this. After loging on to the UNIX system, I export my display variable i.e.:
export DISPLAY=mywindos.your.com:0

Then start some sessions:
hpterm &
dtterm &

and watch them appear like majic on your PC's screen.
If it has wheels or a skirt, you can't afford it.

Re: reflection x

Hi,

Im not sure about your question but with Reflection X you will have as many windows as you can. Firstly you have up to four logical environments, and in each one of them you can open diverse Terminal's sessions.

Rgds.

Re: reflection x

Hi,

AFAIK: no!
But maybe you try "Cygwin" - there you can have multiple sessions concurrently, it's fast, it's a recent version of X, it's free...

FWIW,
