If I modify my path in that xterm and then run the xt5250 script, I see
a window pop up and then disappear.  I get a message "EXEC FAILED!"

If I try to manually run the line where dialog runs (XT5250_HOST =
"$DIALOG....) I get and error:
Error opening terminal: xterm.
Is this another config problem?  (Error on my part running the command
perhaps.)

I am having this same problem.  I am using LTSP(www.ltsp.org), so I could be missing a 
file or environment variable.  Does anyone have any idea as to what I should do?

I experimented a little.  my SHELL environment variable is set to /bin/false by 
default.  In order to open an xterm window, I either have to use 
 xterm -e /bin/bash 
or 
 export SHELL=/bin/bash
 xterm.
Any ideas?
