Are you logging in directly on the Sun server or remotely?  Are you only
having problems with Netscape, or other X applications as well?

check what UID your X process is starting at:

"ps -ef|grep X"

should be running as root with an auth file:

    root 26022  1673  0   Nov 17 ?        0:03 /usr/openwin/bin/Xsun :0
-nobanner -auth /var/dt/A:0-Jtaird

What you could also do is use "xhost +root" (while being logged in as
the user who owns the X process).  You will need a path to
/usr/openwin/bin/ to find xhost.
