Saravana,
The only way that I have found to get exceed to work with a VPN client is to
explicitly set the display and not use the @d.
Before you set up the VPN connection, your PC has an IP address PC.PC.PC.PC.
After you set up the VPN connection and you're connected to the internal
(your companies) network, a 'new' IP address (VPNPC.VPNPC.VPNPC.VPNPC) is
assigned by the VPN concentrator (AUTH.AUTH.AUTH.AUTH) that authenticates
you. Usually, there is some sort of control panel on your PC for the VPN
session that tells you what your assigned IP address is.
The command below, will try to open the display of the VPN concentrator.
@(XTerm, method=stdappdb) -display @d&@;
e.g. "xterm -display AUTH.AUTH.AUTH.AUTH:0.0"
So, you should change the command to explicitly use your VPN address:
@(XTerm, method=stdappdb) -display VPNPC.VPNPC.VPNPC.VPNPC:0.0&@;
This is painful and difficult to automate, but does work.
Regards,
Bill

Usually, when a VPN is used, the "inside" part of the VPN is assigned a
dynamic IP address. The DISPLAY variable on the client needs to be set to
this dynamic IP address (followed by :0.0 or :0).
