XDMCP Logins

Good morning everyone. I have a bit of a weird one on my hands. I have 6
GS140 boxes running Tru64 4.0F with the latest Patch kits that we have
upgraded to C2 Security. Two of the boxes are stand alone machines, and the
other 4 are both two node clusters. After the upgrade, the users are unable
to connect to the boxes with Exceed on their NT boxes using XDMCP logins.
Compaq gave me a fix of making a change to /etc/auth/system/ttys.db and
/etc/auth/system/devassign to allow X logins from any terminal. The syntax
I was given was

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

This worked fine on the stand alone boxes, but not the cluster members. I
haven't contacted Compaq again, because the mailing list is much faster. If
anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate them.
