Invokes the X Authority utility (xauth) that enables you to
manage the contents of one or more X authority files. The X
authority file contains information used to authorize client
connections to the X display server.
This utility is typically used to extract authorization records
from one system and combine them with the records on another
system, such as when granting access to additional users or
enabling remote logins. The actual record entries vary depending
on the authentication scheme currently in use.
In contrast to other X Window System utilities that are available
with DECwindows Motif, xauth is included as a part of OpenVMS
Alpha and OpenVMS I64 operating systems. The xauth commands are
case-insensitive and available directly from the DCL command
line, xauth command line, or from a batch file.
Format:
XAUTH [-f authfile] [-options...] [command]
