NCD-USERS: X-terminal configuration file and Fonts

Greetings,

I am attempting to load terminal setup configuration from a file located on
the boot host. This config file appears to load successfully according to log message
which can be seen during boot time. However, despite the lack of warning messages,
it seems that my config file is ignored.

Specifically, I am trying to set up my NCD X-terminal (ncd19r) so that font
configuration is available after boot.

I am using a font server on my Linux host. In the host configuration file I have
the following lines which relate to fonts.

xserver-default-font-path = {
{ built-ins }
{ tcp/FONT-SERVER:7000 }

After reading the configuration file the X-terminal instead attempts to load some
other (default?) fonts.

Why does this happen?

Any help would be appreciated,
ian
