XDMCP is a protocol in its own right. It may well be that this protocol is blocked by the router/switch/firewall/whatever is connecting the two subnets.
Firewalls are known to block most things not absolutely necessary and it might well be that you have to request it specifically to be opened for the necessary port/protocol.
You could examine what comes through to the AIX machine by setting up a tcpdump (man tcpdump) and then trying to connect from home via XDMCP. Chances are your packets don't come even near the AIX machine.
I hope this helps.

dtwsmremoveworkspacefunctions
DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions(library call) DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions(library call)
NAME
DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions -- remove a window's workspace functions
SYNOPSIS
#include <Dt/Wsm.h>
void DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions(
Display *display,
Window window);
DESCRIPTION
The DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions function removes a window's workspace functions. When DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions removes workspace
functions, the window menu for the window the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), displays does not have the entries that allow the window to
occupy a different set of workspaces, occupy all workspaces, or be removed from the current workspace.
The display argument is the X display.
The window argument is the window to have its workspace functions disabled.
RETURN VALUE
The DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions function returns no value.
APPLICATION USAGE
The application must call DtWsmRemoveWorkspaceFunctions before the window is mapped. The CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), only looks at the
workspace function information at the time the workspace manager manages the window. If the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), is managing
the window, the application must withdraw the window (see XWithdrawWindow(3)), remove the workspace functions, and map the window once
again.

dtwm(1), Dt/Wsm.h - DtWsm(5).
