I hate to say, "It works for me", it does!  :-)   I also hate to mention the
obvious, but I forgot it myself the first time around.  Have you re-ran
"/usr/etc/exportfs -a"?  Also, you have to be able to translate hostnames to
IP addresses but if you can use "telnet" to a named system then that's working
ok.  Note that the software on the Visual is X11 Rev. 2 (unless you're one of
the lucky Beta Test sites Visual graced with the newest Rev. 3 stuff) so you
don't have a "fonts.dir" file and you can't do partial matching on font names.

(By the way, has anyone heard anything about availability of a 19" version of
the Visual X terminal?  My main complaint about the Visual 640 is lack of
real estate.)
