WebTerm X Frequently Asked Questions
What connection protocol should I use?
WebTerm X supports automated connections using the RSH, REXEC, and XDM connection protocols. Additionally, you can use a Telnet session to start an X application and redirect the display to the IP Address of the computer running WebTerm X. Generally speaking, the connection protocol you use is determined by which ones are supported by the host, and how you are connecting to the network. See your host's system administrator for information on which connection protocol your host supports.
Modem connections are generally can be difficult to make a connection to the host. If you are connecting to the network using a dynamic IP Address and want to use REXEC or RSH connection you will need to make sure you have placed a checkmark next to Set Display to PC. It is not recommended to use XDM if using a relatively slow modem and the XDM process on your host starts a desktop window manager, such as CDE or Sun OpenWindows. An alternative to using REXEC, RSH, and XDM is to use a Telnet session. See the FAQ "Can I use WebTerm X and start an X client via TELNET?".
