xf86 server and remote X connections

Hi Mike,

If I modify startx so remote connections are allowed, the guac X.Org
driver shouldn¹t effect the X Server¹s ability to accept remote connects,
correct?

Thanks,
Jeff

Correct.

The experimental Guacamole X.Org driver is an implementation of a
display device which happens to render its contents over the network
using the Guacamole protocol, rather than a local,
physically-connected monitor. In this sense, it is no different than
the driver for any other display device (such as a traditional
graphics card), and has no effect on other services provided by X.Org.
