|
|
<P>You need an X server on your LOCAL system which has the LBX
|
|
extension compiled in. Unless you explicitly told it not to when
|
|
building it, X11R6.3 servers automatically enable LBX. Also, all
|
|
XFree86 3.3 servers have LBX enabled by default.
|
|
<P>You can use the <CODE>xdpyinfo</CODE> command to see if your server has the LBX
|
|
extension: run <CODE>xdpyinfo</CODE> and look at the list just under "number of
|
|
extensions"; you should see "LBX" listed there.
|
|
<P>Next, you need to get an <CODE>lbxproxy</CODE> program compiled for the REMOTE
|
|
system. This is the tricky part. If the remote system is not the same
|
|
type as your local system, the <CODE>lbxproxy</CODE> on your local system will
|
|
do you no good, of course.
|
|
<P>There is unfortunately no "broken out" distribution of <CODE>lbxproxy</CODE>, so
|
|
you will have to either (a) get and build most, if not all, of X11R6.3
|
|
for the remote system, or (b) find someplace to get a pre-compiled
|
|
<CODE>lbxproxy</CODE> binary for your system. The latter is much simpler of
|
|
course.
|
|
<P>The <CODE>lbxproxy</CODE> is simply a single executable. There are no
|
|
configuration files, resource files, etc. associated with it.
