Xmanager

hi everybody

want to access a SOLARIS system with an X Client ( or server ) ( Called Xmanager)...i think all xclients opearate the same way.

Problem : i have the error Xdmcp connection failed when i launch it!

help please!


PS: all i have done is just giving Xmanager the IP of the Sun system and taping on the sun syst:

- setenv DISPLAY IP_of_my_PC:0.0
- export DISPLAY


regards

First, if you are doing these commands, then you are mixing csh and ksh/sh commands -

ksh/sh -
DISPLAY=IP_of_my_PC:0.0
export DISPLAY

csh -
setenv DISPLAY IP_of_my_PC:0.0

If doing the correct commands for the shell you are using doesn't fix your problem, please post the actual error you are receiving. To find which shell you are using, echo $SHELL.

i'm a newbie.it's the first time i use Xmanager!

doing the right commands for my shell doesnt resolve the pb!!

here are what i think is the pb:

- In my home directory i have no dt files (no .profile file,my shell is sh)

- is there some specific commands to issue there (.profile)?

- heard of some dtlogin process for xdmcp requests to be fulfilled????!!!!

PS : uname -s gives "sunOS"

regards
