Hi Henry,

I did as you had told me to....

On server machine
vlms -d client_address file.vob

On client machine:
vlc -V  x11 --input ts server.somedomain.com

I get the followin message on the client machine:
VideoLAN Client -version 0.2.70  .....

intf: interface initialized 
vout: video display initialized (720x576,16/16 bpp )
NetworkOpen: can't connect socket
NetworkOpen: can't connect socket

Why can't the VLC create a socket connection to the server...???? I am giving the proper server address ....so where is the problem.... Someone please help..
Thanks in advance
Jeevo
