This is somewhat unrelated, but the -remote command can be a very fun
one. If you are working in a school lab environment where you have
the root password on the machines, here's what to do to one of your
close friends:
rsh to the person's machine that you wish to have fun with
su to root on that person's machine
from root, su to the user that is using x on the machine
type:
export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
type:
xhost +
now the fun...
if they already have netscape open type:
netscape -remote "openURL(www.hotmale.com)"
if they dont, open netscape first, then do the above command:
netscape&
Yeah, so we get bored at my school. Enjoy!
