2829.0. "Access to Ultrix " by SIOG::ESBECK (Dec Van Esbeck) Tue May 29 1990 06:09

    I wish to use my Xserver to Display Ultrix applications running
    on a remote node. I use a VAXstation 3100 and have several ways
    of implementing this transparently for applications on remote VMS
    nodes. (By transparently, I mean selecting the program on my
    application menu, and up it comes).
    
    I can't do this transparently under Ultrix at present. I have to
    login to the remote Ultrix system and set my display back, and then
    run the user executive. Can one of the Ultrix gurus suggest a better
    way to do this??
    
    Thanks

The Ultrix rsh program will run a program on a remote machine.  For example

	rsh node1 -n dxterm -display node2:0 &

will execute dxterm on node1 and have it display on node2.

    This is useful if your workstation and the remote system are both
    running Unix. I have a VMS Workstation and wish to access applications
    on a remote Ultrix system.
    
    By the way, am I correct in thinking that rsh will only TCP/IP as
    transport?
