Novell's Xconsole & DU fonts

Hello,

I am trying to run Novell IntraNetware's (4.11) XCONSOLE.NLM and use the
display on my DU 4.0b xserver.

There's no problem when I "setenv TERM vt100". However, without this
(ie: the defautlt TERM=xterm), I end up with a font problem. Specifically,
after telnetting to the NW 4.11 box and issuing the correct password, I get
the following error message and the session closes;

XConsole cannot start a session because no fonts are available.

Clearly XCONSOLE requires some fonts on the local (DU 4.0b) xserver.
Anyone out there know which fonts I need to install and where I might
obtain them (or utilities to convert existing fonts to the expected
format)?

Thanks in advance.
