Hi,

I've found the correct startup script to get a localized Xnested server 
to play with my DECWindows remote desktop.

I've switched from Xnest to Xephyr because Xephyr has more options to 
play with.

I'm posting here the script, maybe it could be helpful for someone with 
my same problem... :)

$1 = screen resolution
$2 = ip address of the DECWindows box

Change the "it" xkblayout with your keyboard's proper layout.

#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/Xephyr :1 -screen $1 -query $2 -ac -keybd 
ephyr,,,xkbmodel=evdev,xkblayout=it,xkbrules=evdev,xkboption=grp:alts_toogle 
-reset -retro &

Cheers.

	Fabio.
