The utitliy runs fine from my local machine, but if I log into my machine using rsh from some other machine, the utility gives error with dcop. [acheema@canopus ~]$ dcop ERROR: Couldn't attach to DCOP server! [acheema@canopus ~]$ dcop --user acheema WARNING: Cannot determine home directory for user acheema! Please check permissions or set the $DCOPSERVER variable manually before calling dcop. ERROR: No active KDE sessions! If you are sure there is one, please set the $DCOPSERVER variable manually before calling dcop. What is the problem? Looks like I need to set some variables for KDE session. I'm using KDE 3.1.3 on red hat. Thnx in advance. Amitoj
