- The _d_i_s_a_b_l_e_X_h_o_s_t utility is used to prevent remote hosts from placing
- windows on or otherwise getting access to the local display during a
- user's login session. All remote hosts will have display access
- disabled, whether access originally was granted implicitly (ex., using
- xxxxhhhhoooosssstttt ++++) or explicitly (ex., using xxxxhhhhoooosssstttt ++++ _h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e). Remote toolchests
- will no longer be able to post windows on the local display; however,
- remote iconviews (dirviews) will be able to continue displaying and
- spawning child iconviews.
-
-
- This utility is invoked when the user selects System > Disable Remote
- Display from the toolchest. It is not intended to be run directly by the
- end user.
-
-
- In the IRIX Interactive Desktop (IID), there are four different ways to
- control display access:
-
-
- Permanent Methods:
-
- 1) Through the Improve System Security task in the System Manager
-
- 2) From the Desktop toolchest > Customize > Desktop, on
- the Enable Remote Display toggle button
-
-
- Temporary Methods:
-
- 3) Indirectly from the Desktop toolchest, from Access Files then
- As Another User or By Remote Login
-
- 4) From the System toolchest > Utilities > Enable Remote
- Display or Disable Remote Display
-
-
- Permanent settings are remembered and restored between login sessions.
- Temporary settings override the permanent settings during the current
- session, lasting only until the user logs out.

- Method 1 lets you enable or disable display access for the whole system
- for new users -- that is, users whose accounts are created through the
- IRIX 6.3, 6.4, and 6.5 system administration User Manager after the
- Improve System Security task is run. If users have their own _x_h_o_s_t(_1)
- setting in their own customized dotfiles, then their settings there will
- override the setting made in method 1.
-
-
- Method 2 enables or disables display access immediately when you change
- the Enable Remote Display toggle, but its effects last permanently,
- across login sessions. Methods 3 and 4 can override this setting, but
- the overriding effect lasts only during the current session.
-
-
- Method 3 enables display access for a specific host whose toolchest or
- dirview the user wants to view. The access is enabled automatically for
- the specified host. This setting lasts only for the current session.
-
-
- Method 4 enables or disables display access immediately and its effects
- last temporarily, only during the current login session. It can override
- settings made through any other method, but the overriding effect lasts
- only during the current session.
-
-
- For more information about the entire IRIX Interactive Desktop
- environment, see the IID(1) man page.

- There is an ambiguity in that the Desktop panel does not show the current
- display access status but instead shows the user's default preference.
- In 6.5, the user can be assured that they are disabling all remote access
- either by unchecking the Desktop panel's Enable Remote Display toggle or
- by selecting System > Disable Remote Display.
