The easiest way is to rlogin in and set DISPLAY to home.com:0.0 and run Wingz on the remote system. Or if I had a Unix port of Wingz I could run that locally, but (happily) I am running A/UX and only a Macintosh version of Wingz is available. A/UX will of course run it just fine, so can I get it to use my SLIP link to the internet to access my databasae? With a Unix Wingz you also need sqlexecd running (if not an OnLine instance), but I assume this is obviously not needed (or possible) for the Mac version (though Online is proted to A/UX so thats a possibility here if it would help). -jrg -- internet jrg@galloway.sj.ca.us John R.
