- There is a patch to CLX from Simon Leinen <simon@lia.di.epfl.ch>:
-
- The alternative to using this patch is to install the brand new CLX
- on export.lcs.mit.edu:/contrib/CLX.R5.02.tar.Z - it implements
- xauth-based authorization in a cleaner way. You may still have to
- use a HOST-ADDRESS implementation from my patch because the new CLX
- implements it for a different set of Lisps.
