- I've got an X Terminal (VT1200, only does X with LAT), which I'm using
- DECwindows/Motif on now.
-
- There's another VAX, accessible only over DECnet, that I'd like to get run
- Bookreader from. I've tried various incarnations of SET DISPLAY,
- CREATE/TERMINAL, and got to the point that I could get a networked login to
- my node (it was trying to execute X$X0.COM). I messed with X$X0.COM but
- never got a DECterm to actually display on my X Terminal that was logged
- into the remote VAX.
-
- It seems, from trying to get this to work most of today, and from talking to
- some other people, that it isn't possible because I've got an X terminal
- (instead of a workstation, where SET DISPLAY/NODE=xx/TRANSPORT=DECNET would
- work). I'd appreciate it if someone could tell me to quit wasting my time
- or lead me in the right direction.
