X after C2 security

Hello,

I hope someone can give me a clue as to where to start looking. I've been
using an X server software to connect to our alpha 8400, and it worked just
fine. We're running 4.0D. Last week, we ran secsetup to change the system
from BASE to ENHANCED security. We then rebooted the machine. For some
reason, after the conversion, when I tried to login using the X server
software, I'm getting an error.

The error message says "Cannot obtain database information on this
terminal". It then kicks me out after clicking on the OK button. I don't
even get to enter a username and password.

This problem goes away after changing the system back to BASE mode and
rebooting.

Can anyone shed some light? Thanks!
