Ok, have everything working. Thanks so much for your help Bruce. One last thing that would make this setup better. Right now I log into the freeaxp virtual machine and have to do "set display /cr/tra=tcpip/node=ipaddress" to send the graphics to my windows machine that is running an Xserver. Is there a way to have the "set display" command run automatically when I login? If so can someone explain how to do this, IN DETAIL. I am not a vms expert!

Can you not put the SET DISPLAY command in your LOGIN.COM file?

Out of curiosity, which X-windows client are you using?

Hi Bruce,

Yes, I think I could put it in LOGIN.COM from what I have read. I just don't know the details (syntax, etc.) of how to do this.

I have been evaluating a couple of X-windows clients. Mostly been using MobaXterm and X-Win32 (trial version).

Xming is also viable. The command used should be the same as the one used interactively. Make it the last command in the LOGIN.COM procedure.

You should also be able to start an X-windows session on your PC, then log into the VMS system. DECwindows should pick up the graphics terminal type and start an X-windows session for you.
