CDE to login. yes we have a built in program that can run locally on the machine to show the pop up box. the dialog box no matter if they click ok or not does not dictate the reboot, it is more of a warning of what i am about to do.

this is what i have used in the past but i think i am missing some variables.

rsh test004 `cd /h/test/bin`; DISPLAY=0.0; export DISPLAY; ./Msg "message here";&

but it keeps outputting the pop up box on my local box not the remote machines.

hostname is in the terminal window when you open it
