# tenletxr(1)

forward X-connections backwards.

## NAME

**tenletxr** – forward X-connections backwards.

## SYNOPSIS

**tenletxr** \[**-l** *username*\] \[**-k**\] *host* \[*port*\]

## DESCRIPTION

The **tenletxr** program enables forwarding of X-connections from this machine to host *host*. If *port* is given, that port will be used instead of the default.

The supported options are:

- **-l**

  Log in on the remote host as user *username*

- **-k**

  Disables keep-alives.

## EXAMPLE

To login from host *foo* to host *bar* (where your display is), you might do the following.

1. On foo: **tenletxr** *bar*

2. You will get a new shell where you will be able to start X clients that will show their windows on *bar*.

## BUGS

It currently checks if you have permission to run it by checking if you own */dev/console* on the remote host.
