Has anyone been able to set things up so that a user's home directory is on
an imported NFS file structure and they are able to login to the console
device of either a DECstation-3100 or a VAXstation through the DECwindows
interface?  I've tried this under Ultrix 3.0 and 3.1 on both machines and
the logins fail.  With the home directory set to be on an imported NFS
file structure I've been able to login through either LAT or TELNET to
both machines with no problems.  The same login through DECwindows fails
though.  If you've got this to work I'd appreciate any information you
could provide.

Thanks ...

Robert Schneider
