[HPADM] Destination IP address picked up by X server

Greetings,
We have a user who works remotely. He connects to the company firewall via software and then logs in to a server or does Reflection X, etc. Unfortunately, he needs to use a tool that we only have running on hpux that won't work properly with Reflection X or Citrix. It needs some fonts from the hpux X server. He has a linux desktop that boots up and gets his dhcp address from a Linksys router. He can use something like putty and log into the hpux box and everything looks fine.
The problem we have is if he tries to start a second X session on the hpux box and run it on his linux box (xdmcp), it fails because it's picking up the destination address (192.168.1.*) and can't route back to it. If you do an "echo $DISPLAY" it will show the host name assigned by the company firewall which can be routed to. When the connections fail we see errors in /var/dt/Xerrors like this:
Mon Dec 12 16:45:59 2005
error (pid 15100): Server open attempt #0 failed for 192.168.1.201:1, giving up
The second X session works to my linux box, but I'm on the same subnet with a valid, routeable IP.
Does anyone know where the hpux X server is getting the 192 IP address from? Is this something that can be changed?
Thanks,
Jeff
