Hello HP-UX Gurus,

I am having issues trying to start an x-session via eXceed 7.1.
When I bring up eXceed via XDMCP Braodcast I see the host name and IP Address but when I try to connect the X window does not come up.

I made the modification to the following file “/etc/dt/config/Xaccess” and it looks as follows.

--------------
# grant service to all remote displays


CHOOSER BROADCAST # any indirect host can get a chooser
--------------


I ran the following command and dtlogin is running.

--------------
# ps -ef |grep dtlogin
root 1210 1188 0 12:14:39 ? 0:00 /usr/dt/bin/dtlogin
--------------

I also noticed that the following file "/etc/dt/config/Xconfig" has the following uncommented out as well.

--------------
Dtlogin*grabServer: False
--------------

Are their any other files I need to modify?



Thanks in advance,
Denis

It is quite strange that all these modifications are necessary. As far as is remember, I was able to connect to HP-UX instantly by using XWin.exe from cygwin.

All,

I got it to work...
When I exited off of my Telnet session I then started the X session via XDMCP Broadcast and I got in. However when I got in a screen poped up telling me "Action Required".

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Action Required

The desktop messaging system could not be started.
To correct the problem:

1. Choose [OK] to return to the login screen.
2. Select Failsafe Session from the login screen's option menu and log in.
3. Check to see that the desktop is properly installed, the hostname is correct (/etc/hosts) and that the network is properly configured.

For additional information, see the CDE User's Guide.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I ran the following commands and everything is set corectly.
/sbin/set_parms hostname
/sbin/set_parms timezone
/sbin/set_parms date_time
/sbin/set_parms ip_address
/sbin/set_parms addl_netwrk


Where should I look next?

Thanks,
Denis
