[comp.sys.mac.misc] Help with MacX/Ultrix

Does anyone have MacX working with Ultrix?  I've spent several hours
trying to get it working without success, and the manual is remarkably
uninformative about what MacX is really trying to do.  I am not running
A/UX, and the normal Unix box X users have not been much help, since
there is no Unix on the server side.

We have dxterm on the Ultrix  machine, but most often, after issuing a
remote command, nothing at all happens.  I suspect that for some reason,
MacX is not able to login to issue the dxterm command, but can't really
tell.  Nothing shows up in the status window...  Once, out of about 30
tries, I got a "login denied" message.

Any information at all may be helpful....
