• Applications that would like to take advantage of the Low Bandwidth
  extension to X (LBX) must make their connections to an lbxproxy.
  These applications need to know nothing about LBX, they simply connect
  to the lbxproxy as if were a regular server.  The lbxproxy accepts
  client connections, multiplexes them over a single connection to the X
  server, and performs various optimizations on the X protocol to make
  it faster over low bandwidth and/or high latency connections.
  
  With regard to authentication/authorization, lbxproxy simply passes
  along to the server the credentials presented by the client.  Since X
  clients will connect to lbxproxy, it is important that the user's
  .Xauthority file contain entries with valid keys associated with the
  network ID of the proxy.  lbxproxy does not get involved with how
  these entries are added to the .Xauthority file.  The user is
  responsible for setting it up.
