Hi Dee, thanks for the note.
I tried xhost + and it returned 'access control disabled, clients can
connect from any host". Then su to root and it says cannot connect when
I try konqueror.
I also tried 'xhost +local:root' and it returned "non-network local
connections being added to access control list" but get the same cannot
connect when su to root. (I've been doing the 'su -' or otherwise I get
an unknown command under root when I try konqueror.)
This is at home on my little network behind a router (nat) but no
firewall to speak of. Should I worry?
Lots to learn yet.
cheers, JD
