Environment

If the RX document requests X-UI-LBXservice and the default X server does not advertise the LBX extension, the RX Plugin will look for the environment variable XREALDISPLAY to get a second address for your X server and look for the LBX extension there. When running your browser through lbxproxy you will need to set XREALDISPLAY to the actual address of your server if you wish remote applications to be able to use LBX across the Internet.

If the RX document requests XPRINT service, RX Plugin looks for the variable XPRINTER to get the printer name and X Print server address to use. If the server address is not specified as part of XPRINTER, RX Plugin uses the first one specified through the variable XPSERVERLIST when it is set. When it is not RX Plugin then tries to use the video server as the print server. If the printer name is not specified via XPRINTER, RX Plugin looks for it in the variables PDPRINTER, then LPDEST, and finally PRINTER.

Notes

When an authorization key is created for a remote application to use the X Print service, the RX Plugin has to create the key with an infinite timeout since nobody knows when the application will actually connect to the X Print server. It then revokes the key when its instance is destroyed (that is when you go to another page). However, if the plugin does not get destroyed properly, which happens when Netscape Navigator dies unexpectedly, the print authorization key will never get revoked.
