    1.17 +<h3>Use Xvesa as X terminal</h3>
    1.18 +<p>
    1.19 +You can use Xvesa as X terminal, if you have a machine on 
    1.20 +the network that accepts Xdmcp connections. To enable this,
    1.21 +you can start the server with the option <code>-query</code> followed by
    1.22 +the machine name or IP address. Example of machine 192.168.0.2
    1.23 +on a local network:
    1.24 +</p>
    1.25 +<pre> $ Xvesa -ac -shadow -screen 1024x768x24 -query 192.168.0.2
    1.26 +</pre>
    1.27 +<p>
    1.28 +The use of a graphical remote server can be of great use, although
    1.29 +reponse times of applications depend greatly on Internet
    1.30 +speed and the remote machine's power. This technique works
    1.31 +very well within a local area network (LAN) and allows you 
    1.32 +to control applications installed on the remote machine directly
    1.33 +from the screen of the local machine on which you work. 
    1.34 +Note that the distant remote machine may have 
    1.35 +multiple accounts in use simultaneously and/or direct access.
