I found it for BL3 also in slack 4 xbin.tgz. Thank You.
> Did you see a grey screen with an X when you typed startx?
Yes, i did. But I got a lot of errors starting startxt, because
it started Xvesa, and X is configured for my normal Xsvga.

Sorry, but that is not really correct.
When you start xterm on SDF it tries to connect to your computer.
Local IPs are not transfered over the internet.
So you have to give DISPLAY the IP of your router.
But the poor router does not know what to do with it. So it swallows it.
You have to tell the router what to do with it. This is a bit different
on the routers. Its called portforwarding. You have to open the inport
6000 (for display 0), outport also 6000 and destination your local IP
(with ifconfig).
You can find out your internet IP in your router or using
http://bronto.freeshell.org/myip.cgi.
I get a new internetadress daily. So i did mslookup [myip] and got my
hostname by the provider. I'm on the way to set up my DIPLAY now
automticly by logging in SDF.
Textaplications to SDF are much faster then telnet. I can use mc and
mcedit. That is a big step further!
I did not find Keesans directory. So I downloaded LINKS-GUI myself.
It works realy very slow. After that I found a big file in my dir,
called links-guy.core. What is that?
Yesterday I got fishtank running somehow and could not stop it :)
Thank you for all your god ideas!
Werner
