[comp.unix.ultrix] Xws and DECwindows applications...

Greetings...

I have been running MIT X11R4 for quite a while and using
MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 type of access control to avoid anti-social people
from vandalizing my X environment.  I also used some DECwindows
applications as well, although I had to fall back to xhost based
access control since they were not compatible with it. (they were R3)

I just installed Ultrix 4.2 and as advertised I had to use the Xws
server rather than the MIT provided server.  Works just great and
notice no changes from the MIT server I was using before (except I
had to install DEC provided fonts.).  To my surprise, however,
decwindows clients still don't work with MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1.  Do I
have to do something special for this to work?  Are DECwindow clients
still R3?
