Network

Property

Description

Display Address

Assigns the address that X clients will use

Automatic

Sets the Display address to the IP address used by the local windows machine
 

IPSmart

IPSmart  is used to acquire and deliver the address of the X-server (your local workstation), instead of the firewall between your X-server and the remote host. This creates a direct, functional connection between your workstation and the remote host. The remote host receives the IP address of your workstation, instead of the firewall enabling you to seamlessly pass your computer’s display to the remote connection.  
 

Override

Send the display to the IP address specified in the Override field.  An X server must be running on the system specified.

 

Base Display Number

Each X Server (X-Win32 or otherwise) listens on a Display Number.  With multiple X Severs on a host, this number is used to reference the proper X Server.
