I'm trying to run motif on a VMS workstation. That is I want to run
mwm off a Ultrix machine, so that it controls the windows on a VMS system.

Both the VMS system and the ULTRIX system have decnet.

To run the system we have tried:

1) change protection on the VMS system to *::* under the session manager.
2) set host to the ULTRIX machine.
3) setenv DISPLAY to <nodename>::0.0
4) /usr/bin/X11/mwm

This results in the "X Toolkit Error: Can't Open display"
message.

Can anyone help solve this problem?

Thanks in advance.

Bruce.
