Yes, I am running the gatethru stuff (the program is called gatewayd right?), and it does work. Don't forget to set the execute bits on the shell scripts you create (like I did). If the VMS client windows are coming up on the DECstation, chances are the display number is not being set properly in VMS. We had that experience with at least on locally written VMS application (actually a DCL script at the front end) which set the display number to zero.
