When I tried to create a xterm from our Dec3100 running DecWindow to our Sun 3/60 running X11R3 with uwm running, I got an error complaining about server is not authorized and so on. The exact command and response: $dxterm -display sybil:0.0 Server is not authorised to connect to host Can't open display 'sybil:0.0' sybil is our hostname of our Sun. Can anyone has any idea what I did wrong? By the way, the Dec3100 runs Work System 2.0, ultrix 3.0 and the Sun uns on SunOS 3.5 Thank you very much for any suggestion at all.

The 'xhost' command will enable you to do this. Do a man on 'xhost'. eg; sun_prompt> xhost node_decstation:0.0 -- Christopher Graham Digital Equipment Corp Ultrix Resource Center New York City
