So you say the output of "Dev Prot" in

Device WSA3:, device type DECwindows pseudo device, is online,
record-oriented
    device, shareable.

    Error count                    0    Operations completed
     38
    Owner process                 ""    Owner UIC
[VMS,USER]
    Owner process ID        00000000    Dev Prot
S,O:RWPL,G,W
    Reference count                1    Default buffer size
    512

is not what it pretends to be. (I have no other account on the system,
so I can't try it. But I can set the protection to S,O,G,W and can't use
the display myself. So I assumed no other process can use the device.)
