Keywords: resolver decwindows xhosts Message-ID: Date: 4 Dec 90 19:51:00 GMT Sender: news@portia.Stanford.EDU Organization: AIR, Stanford University Lines: 10 I tried adding a hostname to the access control list under DECwindows, and I got a "Not a registered hostname" error, but doing the same with xhost works, and the internet number of the host gets added to the list of "Authorized Hosts." It would be nice to be able to use dxsession to do this in general. Does anyone know why this happens? -castor
