Hey that works,
i am able to get a nested desktop. thanks very much to ananth and venky
both.

but, is that the way to run it.
i mean why is the zlogin screen not very helpful.
any explanation or changes on how I could get that running through normal
zlogin.

1 more doubt. how do i do installation specific to this linux zone.

thanks,
ravi.
