You have my curiosity up.  I looked at the man page and I cannot determin how you would use this command.

I am using putty to shell into my linux dev box that is right next to me.  Can I use  Xnest to use X in my putty shell session?

Seriously, the correct answer:

Xnest -query machine.name :1


Sorry guys for all the lame posts, but in case someone else wants to know, I
