I am using a 2019 iMac running Sanoma. I have OpenVMS running as a virtual machine using VirtualBox. What app do I use at the MacOS terminal prompt for OpenVMS to recognize the remote login as being from a graphical terminal device? DEC Windows cannot be otherwise started.
Thank you!

Re: DEC Windows
OpenSSH on VMS does not currently support clients using the `-X` option. So, you need to do the following:
1. Start the X server on your Mac.
2. Connect to the VMS system with telnet or SSH.
3. Run `set display/create/node=1.2.3.4/transport=tcpip/server=1/exec` substituting `1.2.3.4` for the IP address of your Mac.
4. Run `RUN SYS$SYSTEM:DECW$SESSION` to start a DECwindows session.
