Hi Gurus,
Here is my original post:
"We have a bunch of microcomputers running Windows NT 4.0 and
would like to get information on X terminal emulators (freeware
or commercial) that could be used to access Alpha Stations
(DU 3.2d) and IBM Risc 6000 (AIX 4.1.5 / CDE)."

In the freeware side there were 4 references to MI/X
(www.microimages.com/freestuf/) and one to VNC (www.orl.co.uk/vnc).
In the commercial side there were 15 references to Exceed
(www.hummingbird.com), 8 references to X-win32 (www.startnet.com),
5 for (and one against) Reflection X (www.wrq.com), 2 to Excursion
(inside Digital's Pathworks), 1 to UNIX-Link (aka Chamaleon NFS),
1 to XonNet (www.ftp.com) and 1 to KEA-X.
I have tried MI/X but found it too simple. Now I am test driving
X-win32 since it is much cheaper (around $ 60 per licence) than
the winner Exceed (prices varies from $ 150 to $ 500 per licence
according to informations from above Gurus). I found it ease to
install but was not successful to run CDE completely with it in
AIX and DU 4.0b boxes. I can only open the "Failsafe" session
(Xterm window). Any directions on this point is welcome.
Thanks again,
