Question:
how to set up information about x-terminal?

Answer:
it is enough to update databases by issuing the commands:

/usr/tcb/bin/convauth -dv
/usr/tcb/bin/convauth -dt

_after_ changing files ttys & devassign (from OSF/1 FAQ):

> In the following, replace host, host.sub.domain and n.n.n.n by the
> hostname, full domain name and IP address of the host(s) you are
> trying to connect from.
>
> Add lines like the following to /etc/auth/system/ttys :
>
> host\:0:t_devname=host\:0:t_xdisplay:t_login_timeout#0:chkent:
>
> Add lines like the following to /etc/auth/system/devassign :
