Thanks to William Flett, Scott Skeate and Kevin Partin for there
responses.
My original problem involved running a CDE action on a remote system
without using an NFS-mounted home directory. The problem is that
.Xauthority must be shared by both machines but I also must have
separate home directories.
Scott provided what should have been an obvious answer:
Use the XAUTHORITY environment variable to point to a directory that can
be shared.
Although I was trying to avoid using NFS at all (the system needs to be
as bare and simple as possible), this seems the best answer.
Thanks all,
