Unfortunately I don't have the PEX user's guide You'll have to remake a X11 server as it needs extentions in the server for running PEX programs. Check /usr/X386/lib/X11/config/site.def and read the READMEs in the /usr/X386/lib/X11/etc to find out to recompile server. You'll have to get the X386 linkkit. By default to limit the size of the server, PEX is not compiled in the server. -- Ollivier ROBERT roberto@hsc.fr.net Hervé Schauer Consultants Ollivier.Robert@sidhe.frmug.fr.net PERL / MIME / PGP / 4.4BSD SunOS sidhe.frmug.fr.net 4.1.3 1 sparcbook
