The setuid bit of xterm seems to interfere with security policy of your system.

Try to clear the suid bit as following:

# chmod -s /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm

If the problem persists, let us know the detailed version of your Unix machine.

Same problem here. Running Xstart 3.0 against a Suse Linux SLES10. Got no suid on /usr/X11R6/bin/xterm.

Is there any solution?

Thanx

Well, found a solution here: /bbs/detail.html?id=xmanager&num=2999

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Try allocating pseudo terminal:

1. Open Xstart.
2. Select a session.
3. For Protocol, select SSH.
4. Click Setup.
RESULT: SSH Protocol Setup dialog box opens up.
5. Select the Option tab.
6. In Command Execution, select Allocate a pseudo terminal before executing the command.
7. Click OK to save the changes.
8. Start the session.

then, if the problem persists, try restarting SSH server.

Also, try removing the $HOME/.Xauthority file.
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Removing the .Xauthority-file didn't cure the problem, but the pseudo terminal request did!

Thankx
