Hi,
Please redirect me to a site or link if this is asked before. I have a Dec Alpha serving out X Windows apps. How could I use my Mac OS X to take advantage of that so that I can run graphical apps on that server on my Mac OS X. When I used Windows 2000 I had this application called XWin32; is there something like that for Mac OS X? Just need a client.

Thanks,
T
 
check out www.oroborosx.com for a X11 window manager that blends nicely with OS X. This doesn't include X itself, but there should be links you can follow from there to get XFree86 for OS X.
 
Yeah, I got Oroborosx working with XDarwin. Only complaint is that I installed XDarwin using fink only to find out later that it is not recommended to do that as future updates to XDarwin may encounter problems.... SIgh...
