Hi Folks,
How to transplant X windows from machine to machine?
I looked at this a few years ago. The only solution I could come up with was to have an X proxy in the middle which could accepts an X client then redirects outgoing messages to other X servers.
This is what "xmove" does, there's a debian package for it.
Package: xmove Priority: optional Section: x11 Installed-Size: 258 Maintainer: Adrian Bridgett bridgett@debian.org Architecture: i386 Version: 2.0beta2-3 Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.2-2), xlibs (>= 4.0.1-11) Filename: pool/main/x/xmove/xmove_2.0beta2-3_i386.deb Size: 104796 MD5sum: a8a5b9c9c09b12980fdbfee24ebaa3ad Description: A Pseudoserver for moving programs between displays. xmove lets you change which display an X Window System program renders to - this could be a different monitor or even a different machine.
