Note that a sysprog must install this because xterm must be setuid root to use USS terminal resources. Our sysprog installed this port but removed it after noticing that it was a resource hog. There are useful workarounds for z/OS xterm. If you have a full blown X Windows server on your desktop, it has its own xterms. You can add USS host(s) with "xhost +" commands on your server, rlogin to USS from its xterms and set DISPLAY to the IP address and window number of your X server. If you don't have an X Windows server, perhaps you can use XDMCP as an intermediary. On my office Wintel, I use Xmanager 2.0 to get a virtual X Windows desktop on one of our Solaris XDMCP servers. One further caveat... in a work environment, avoid Cygwin (the open-source Unix emulator for Wintel) because it has a long history of unresolved conflicts with commercial security software. Turning that off is seldom an option at work. John R.
