A customer is trying to open a remote display on a
AlphaStation 200 running VMS 6.2 with DWMOTIF V1.2-4
from an AlphaStation running Digital UNIX V4.0b.
I'm tying to help him.
We became using the security dialog of the style manager
adding
TCPIP * * and also
TCPIP nodename username,
TCP nodename *,
tcpip * *,
TCP-IP * *,
.....
We changed the *hostList resource into the dt.resources file.
we used the file located into the [.home] directory and also
the file located into the [.current] directory, ....
Always we got a "Can't open display: x.y.w.z:0.0 " error.
On the other hand if we delete all *hostList resource lines
we could ever open a display using DECNET transport.
Anyone knows an explanation for that behaviour?
Thanks.

| Are you sure that TCP/IP transport is enabled for the target
display server? Do :
SHOW LOGICAL/TABLE=DECW$SERVER* DECW$SERVER_TRANSPORTS
If TCPIP is not listed, you need to add it via the file
SYS$MANAGER:DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.COM. Add the line:
$ decw$server_transports == "DECNET,LOCAL,TCPIP"
If it was truly a security problem, it would something like
"Client refused by server...".
