XDM, XDCMP not responding - TCP/IP serv v5.3 ECO 4

[Andrew Rycroft]

Hi,

I have enabled the XDM services on my OpenVMS system with OpenVMS v7.3-1, and TCP/IP services v5.3 ECO4. I can see it is enabled with the UCX SHOW SERVICE command.

On my PC when I use my X-windows emulator and do an XDCMP probe, I can see the HP-UX system, Tru64UNIX systems, Solaris systems, but not the OpenVMS system. Do I have to do somethin additional to get it to respond to the probe ?

With regards
Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Yes. You need to put your host name in the following file:

SYS$SPECIFIC:[TCPIP$XDM]XACCESS.TXT

Or simply put a * in the file. It will give access to all.

HTH,
Thanks & regards,

P.S. If the file is not present, then there must be template file. copy this to XACCES.TXT .
