DECwindows over TCP/IP Transport?

» close window

The Question is:

 
I am currently using telnet to connect my X-Terminal to an Alpha 3000 - 300,
and would like to use the New Desktop on my X-Terminal.  Is there any way to
do this?
 
 


The Answer is :

 
  Assuming you have a TCP/IP Transport that permits it...
 
  Enable the use of TCP/IP transport under DECwindows:
 
    See symbol decw$server_transports
    in SYS$COMMON:[SYSMGR]DECW$PRIVATE_SERVER_SETUP.TEMPLATE
 
  And then use the command:
 
    SET DISPLAY/CREATE/PROTOCOL=TCPIP/NODE=name
 
  TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS permits this.
