Hello everyboby !

I need to take control of a remote console of a Hp 9000/835 system.
I use my sun as a display server and I want to start an Hpterm
client on the remote system with:
  'hpterm -C'
after having setenv DISPLAY <my_sun:0>.
I know this is not possible when the server is not on the same machine
than the client, but I dont understand WHY !!

Does anybody knows if it is possible to override such a limitation.

Thank, in advance Please email the answers to donnat@cih.hcuge.ch
