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. Obliging of it!
