VMS Help  —  XAUTH  Displaying File Information
    To assist with debugging file access and write issues, xauth
    includes a command that displays summary information about
    a particular X authority file. Use the XAUTH INFO command to
    display information about an X authority file, such as the
    current lock status and change history.

    For example, the following command displays summary information
    about the X authority file UNTRUSTED.DECW$XAUTH:

    $  XAUTH -f SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR]UNTRUSTED.DECW$XAUTH INFO
    Authority file:      SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSMGR]UNTRUSTED.DECW$XAUTH
