My computer runs Linux. Wife's computer runs Linux. We both run Slackware 9.1/
KDE 3.1 We are connected via a router to share the DSL line. I'm
198.168.0.101 and she is ..... .102.

On my machine I set up a user for her called 'wife' and a password of 'abcxyz'

Assuming I put her at a login prompt on her machine, how can she login to my
computer as "wife" ? Or is this not possible.
