We have a DEC-3100 demo unit which I would like to test with a PC running X-windows (Hummingbird's HCL Exceed plus). I can log into the 3100 using Telnet, but cannot get the DECstation to fire up the session manager (dxsession). I CAN get a dxterm by first settting the DISPLAY environment variable to my PC's internet address, and also get dxwm to fire up, but the session manager refuses to come up. I have been a long-time VMS user, so I am not really familiar with UNIX-ese. Could someone kindly point out how to set the .login file or whatever to get dxsession to talk to a remote x-terminal? (N.B. DEC also did not leave much in the way of manuals so RTFM is not an option).
