Is the desktop itself an X app? If so, what is its path and filename? What
do I type to invoke it?
TIA

I'll try this again. On the local machine (10.0.0.1) type this
xhost 10.0.0.2
Telnet to the host machine (10.0.0.2) and type this
DISPLAY=10.0.0.1:0.0;export DISPLAY
then start any x app and watch it (eventually) show up on the local
desktop.
If you telnetted to a linux host from a linux local box then it SHOULD
automagically set your DISPLAY variable. You'll still need to grant
local display permission via xhost though.
