Those are in the menus... I'm very curious on that options box.

Oh. I want to do remote logins from a box running gdm just as I can do
with the suns running cde/cdm. But now it starts to sound like this is

That starts to sound better. But I still don't get any chooser. (Yes,
there are two boxes on this net right now. But for some strange reason I
can't do any -indirect/-query connections to the other one (yes, it run's

Doesn't really seem to be the problem here. :(
