(Even though the NeWS 1.1 manual is pretty deficient). The command "newshost" is used to allow remote NeWS servers to connect to a given workstation. If you were on machine salt, to let machine pepper pop up NeWS windows remotely you would say: salt% newshost add pepper Also setting the systemdict entry /NetSecurityWanted to false will disable network security. Does anyone know what newshost enable and disable do? They are not described on the newshost manual page. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew S.
