Once again, you are playing the "If you disagree, you must not
undersand" game. In this game, it becomes impossible to dislike
something, since anyone who dislikes the thing in question is dismissed
as not understanding it.

I.e., get this through your thick skull: No matter how many times you
(and others like you) "explain" it, the fact remains that it *is*
"backwards", vis a vie (most of) the rest of the world. And, of course,
I must once again state that being "backwards" is not a moral failing.

Wrong. It is only OCCASIONALLY a discussion group
about C; mostly, like most "discussion" groups, it is
off-topic Rorsharch [sic] revelations of the childhood
traumas of the participants...

So tell me, if you install the openSSH daemon on your workstation PC
in order to allow users on other machines to connect to your PC,
is your workstation PC still the client and not a server in the
context of the SSH remote login?

WRONG!

The xroach program which you are running is
running on the CPU of the local machine.

It is only the visual output of that program running
on your local machine which is being displayed on
the remote machine.

And the program which is running on the remote machine
to provide the display is not running as your userid
either, unlike the xroach program.

NO! Common conversion does not state any such thing.

If you install openSSH server on your desktop machine to
allow remote logins, is your desktop machine the client
or the server in the context of openSSH logins to your
machine?

Todd has a mental block.

He refuses to accept that a desktop PC can run a daemon
and act as a server because it is local and not in a rack
in an air conditioned warehouse.
