[Info-vax] Mapping a PC screen to DECWindows

Hi there, Happy Obamaers,

I run Personal Alpha emulator on a PC, running OpenVMS 7.2 (the Alpha,
not the PC)

VMS TCTIP is 192.168.1.200
PC is 192.168.1.11
Emulator Interface is set to shared.

Everything works fine, thanks to all of you.

But one thing, I do not "remember" how to map my screen to DECwindows.

I started DECwindows
I did a $ set display/create/transport=tcpip/node=192.168.1.11
then when I start say Mozilla, it sez

Starting mozilla-bin...

Gtk-WARNING **: cannot open display: _WSA0:

I do not remember  if I should run an X11 program on the PC.
Thanks for your help. I'll write the HOWTO later.
