This came up in a conversation the other day around here and it was
suggested that many people weren't taking advantage of SGI's REMOTEHOST
environment variable.

Here is one use that I put it to, I have the following in my .login

-----
if( $?REMOTEHOST ) then
	setenv DISPLAY $REMOTEHOST\:0
else
	setenv DISPLAY localhost:0
endif
