[comp.windows.x] using sun as server from vax

jkimada@atr-2s.atr.hac.com (04/27/91)

  i am having some problem running an x application on vax and have
it displayed on sun over tcp/ip.  below is basic layout here.
  i set the display by '$set display/create/node=me:', then did '%xhost +vax'
on the sun side.  i was able to display to decstation w/ equivalent commands, 
but not on sun. any suggestions?


    vax (tcp/ip, decnet)

                                |                       |
                   (tcp/ip) sun server             decstation (decnet)
                                |
                       ------------
                        |
                        me (sun 3/50)

The "$set display" command should read

$ set display/create/node=me/trans=tcpip

and you have to change

sys$manager:decw$private_server_setup.com

to read

$  decw$server_transports == "DECNET,LOCAL,TCPIP"

and reboot.
