X Display not functioning for native applications

Managers,

I'm hoping I can get some help with this situation.
It is probably
something simple that I'm overlooking:

I have a A8400 system running TRU64 5.1a with a
graphics terminal connected
to it. I am able to login to the system and
manipulate the CDE just fine.
The problem occurs when I try to open up an
application such as
'dxaccounts'. I get the following error message:

dxaccounts: Cannot open display

Not a problem yet. I didn't think I have to provide
any display parameters
when opening up a GUI from the console, as the host
properties would already
be set. So, I try to give it the proper $DISPLAY
values:

(/bin/ksh)
# export DISPLAY=hostname:0.0

I now get the following error message:

Xlib: connection to "hostname:0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
dxaccounts: Cannot open display

What am I missing? Thank you in advance...
