X Display

Dear Gurus,

I have a Dec 2000-300 AXP running DU 3.0 which is just coming back from
being fixed (firmware problem).
I observe now 2 things I can't fix because of my ignorance:

1) Everything's fine with the first Decterm window. Now, if I open a second
   window and if I log to another account from within this window (login
root
   for instance) the second account has no access to X applications. The
   message is 'xhost: unable to open display ""'. Of course I type
   "setenv DISPLAY my_station:0" but to no avail.
   The fix is probably quite simple, but I have no idea.

2) For reading and sending mail, I log from this station onto a 2100 server
   running exmh. The keyboard on the station is a PC like keyboard
(PCXAL-KA).
   The usual "delete" key marked "<-- Backspace" is understood by exmh as
   "\X08". I must certainly define something in the "bindings" menu of exmh,
   but what?

Thank you for your help,

Jean-Loup
