Both boxes are installed with ssh. Furthermore, how to control the X11 default display size that is shown on the windows XP or client box?

    You need to determine what you have set differently on the two AIX machines.
    Are your networks "sane"? ping and telnet - OK.
    Have you compared the env command output?
    What about the DISPLAY shell variable?
    What about running "xhost +"?

    the display size is probably in one of the X11 start up config files like:
    .dtprofile
    .dt
    .mwmrc
    .wmrc
    .Xdefaults
    .xdt3
    .Xpdefaults
    or any one of hundreds of others - you can spend a life time fiddling with the 100's of options.

    I like small, simple fonts and start xterm with: xterm -fn fixed
