The fix was simple:
As root:
echo '*\:*:t_devname=*\:*:t_login_timeout#0:t_xdisplay:chkent:' \
| /tcb/bin/edauth -s -dt
echo '*\:*:v_type=xdisplay:chkent:' | /tcb/bin/edauth -s -dv

Subject: XTERM error message
After moving to enhanced security, I get this message when trying to login
from an Xterm:
"cannot obtain database information on this terminal"
I do not get this when suing telnet, only when trying to open a X session.
I checked the archives but don't see an appropriate summary for my issue.
or I'm not understanding ...
Telnet is fine for most tasks, but I need the X session to use GUI
interfaces for some admin tasks.
Thanks in advance,
