Summary: server access control program for X
Description:
The xhost program is used to add and delete host names or user names to
the list allowed to make connections to the X server. In the case of
hosts, this provides a rudimentary form of privacy control and secu-
rity. It is only sufficient for a workstation (single user) environ-
ment, although it does limit the worst abuses. Environments which
require more sophisticated measures should implement the user-based
mechanism or use the hooks in the protocol for passing other authenti-
cation data to the server.
