GDM for VNC using inetd

[Kurt P Lloyd]

FYI,
I had this grey screen recently, Solaris_7_in_Germany server
to Solaris_8_in_USA viewer, ... my viewer was grey.  I was
using an xstartup file I've had success with on Solaris 8
servers, and was stuck and needed a quick solution.  So I
tried this at the Solaris_7_in_Germany machine command line:

  $ DISPLAY=stt235:1 /usr/dt/bin/dtwm &

My grey-screen viewer turned into a CDE desktop.  BTW,
stt235:1 is the name of the VNC server instance I was
running.

Maybe I'll dig and find out what my original grey-screen
problem really is, but at least I'm fine for now with this
workaround.
