	I am currently running this stuff and I am having problems.
(Probably something stupid I did).

        I am having a problem with gettin xterm to update the /etc/utmp
file.  When I do a 'w' it shows no one logged on. (See below)

 12:00pm  up 20:03,  0 users,  load average: 0.22, 0.24, 0.19
User     tty           login@  idle   JCPU   PCPU  what


The permissions on xterm are :

---s--x--x   1 root     other     528138 Feb 19 16:35 /usr/bin/X11/xterm

And the permission on /etc/*tmp files are:

-rw-r--r--   1 root     bin          720 Apr 25 09:09 /etc/utmp
-rw-rw-rw-   1 adm      adm        54480 Apr 24 17:45 /etc/wtmp

We are currently running HPUX 7.05 on Model 9000 Series 400.

I have also tried running xterm with the +ut option

We are running xdm from the /etc/inittab file to manage the logins:

xdm :2:once:/usr/bin/X11/xdm                # XDM invocation


These are the xdm protections:

-r-x--x--x   1 bin      bin       407514 Oct  1  1990 /usr/bin/X11/xdm

I am wondering if any of you are seeing the same thing?  If not do you see
anything obviously wrong with the above info? Do you need more info?
