See, I never bothered with xhosts on the suns, since of course they all *share* that stuff and it works by default. When I got complaints about permissions on the 386, I fixated on the idea that the problem was *on* the 386, when of course it was on the sun I was connecting too (from?). Using xhost on the sun made the error go away. Thanks very much to everyone who responded. I *had* RTFM, I just didn't quite UNDERSTAND TFM...
