In /etc/auth/system/ttys I added the following line
xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\:0.0:t_devname=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\:0.0:t_xdisplay:chkent:

Now I get the login screen, then after typing a username and password I
get the last login info. Then I get a cannot start session manager from
Remote Client -- access denied. I have never really used X before, but we
have a bunch of programmers that think they need and X interface on unix
or they cannot use it.

Any more ideas?

Thanks,
Brian
