NAME
     kx - securely forward X conections

SYNOPSIS
     kx [-l username] [-k] [-d] [-t] [-p port] [-P] host

DESCRIPTION
     The kx program forwards a X connection from a remote client to a local
     screen through an authenticated and encrypted stream.  Options supported
     by kx:

     -l	     Log in on remote the host as user username.

     -k	     Do not enable keep-alives on the TCP connections.

     -d	     Do not fork. This is mainly useful for debugging.

     -t	     Listen not only on a UNIX-domain socket but on a TCP socket as
	     well.

     -p	     Use the port port.

     -P	     Force passive mode.

     This program is used by rxtelnet and rxterm and you should not need to
     run it directly.

     It connects to a kxd on the host host and then will relay the traffic
     from the remote X clients to the local server.  When started, it prints
     the display and Xauthority-file to be used on host host and then goes to
     the background, waiting for connections from the remote kxd.
