I am having trouble getting DecWindows to work over Wollingong's
WIN/TCP.  Does anyone know if this is "supposed" to work, or is
this another reason to buy Multinet TCP?

I have a Vax VMS running Multinet TCP/IP and use DecWindow X
applications by doing the following commands:
	>:: set disp/creat/trans=tcpip/node=111.222.33.44
	>:: run sys$system:decw$clock

When I try the same thing on a Vax VMS running WIN/TCP I get this
error message:
	>:: set disp/creat/trans=wintcp/node=111.222.33.44
	>:: run sys$system:decw$clock
	X Toolkit Error: Can't Open display
	%DWT-F-DWTABORT, xtoolkit fatal error

What am I doing wrong?  Does _anyone_ have X applications/DecWindows
running over WIN/TCP?
