In the suggestions to open up port 6000, I saw no mention of
constraining that to the particular machine you're logging in to.
Which would be a good idea.
Given a choice between opening the port to all comers, or opening all
ports to your particular Sun, I would choose the latter. But why not
just be limit it to both port and host?

Hi All,
I just made the classic mistake of having my firewall on while
trying to start up an application
from my Sun on my Mac. It just wait and tells you nothing.
What would be a good firewall rule on the Mac, so you can use x11
without having to switch off
the firewall ?
Apologies if this was already issued, I searched but couldn't find.....
Cheers,
Lennart Broekhof
