Jeffrey Martin had the solution:

I did # /sbin/init.d/apx stop
and the messages stopped--they had been being generated every few
seconds.
Since my predecessor had installed this, and *I* don't use it, I
permanently shut off this daemon by
# cd /sbin/rc3.d; mv S64apx No_S64apx
All is fine. Thanks.

Original message:
My /var/dt/Xerrors file is receiving every few seconds an error message
similar to the following:
AUDIT: Mon Aug 6 14:13:51 2001: 967 X: client 24 rejected from IP <the
server's own IP address!> port <random port number>
Where are these error messages coming from; and, more importantly, how
do I stop them?
967 is the PID of a process running X (/usr/bin/X11/X), which itself is
being run from dtlogin (/usr/dt/bin/dtlogin -daemon).
How can I find out what "client 24" is?
Obviously, something about X or CDE is misconfigured. Any suggestions?
Note that I have set Dtlogin.errorLogSize: 50 (units are KB, the
comments say) in /etc/dt/config/Xconfig months ago; yet the Xerrors file
grows unchecked, and I continually have to cp /dev/null to it.
