You probably don't have the software either.

Two things needed, xremote roms in the ncd, and xremoteinit on netcom.
I don't know if netcom has any x, I'd think not. Besides, you'd
need the specific software ncd provides with their xterminals
to run it over a dialup.

Try ftp.telebit.com, there's an application note describing
in a bit more detail using an ncd xterm.
