CDE login window resize?

I was asked to display a banner on the CDE login window and I have successfully accomplished that task. This is what I did:

1) made the directory /etc/dt/config/C
2) cp /usr/dt/config/C/Xresources /etc/dt/config/C
3) I edited /etc/dt/config/C/Xresources and ensured the following lines were present in MISC block of the file:

Dtlogin*logo*bitmapFile: /usr/snadm/etc/admintool.xpm
Dtlogin*greeting.labelString: Access and use of this machine \nis
restricted to authorized users

4) saved the file and quit

However, the xpm file that is using is warning text and it is to large to display under the normal viewing of, I believe is, 237 by 237 pixels. Is there a way to resize the CDE login screen to accommodate the xpm file? I believe there should be a way because when I enter my user name and then when it asked me to enter my password, and I enter the wrong password and after I click “ok” to the error message then the CDE login window resizes perfectly and the xpm file is seeing in its entirety.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated...

NAME
fookb-wmaker - Xkb state indicator with Window Maker support SYNOPSIS
fookb-wmaker [options] DESCRIPTION
fookb is a Xkb state indicator. It displays the icon corresponding to the number of Xkb locked group. You may use mouse-clicks to change Xkb locked group with mouse. Additionally, fookb can be configured to execute a program on changing group. fookb man page is based on WMMail.app man page. Program was written from scratch. To use fookb with the Window Maker Dock, simply drag the fookb icon to the Window Maker Dock (if fookb was compiled with Window Maker sup- port). OPTIONS
NB! Command line parameters take precedence over config file or X resources! -icon1 -icon2 -icon3 -icon4 -iconboom -display CONFIGURATION FILE (for libWUtil-enabled version) The configuration file consist of a single PropList dictionary, which in turn is composed of several PropList key-value pairs. The recog- nized keys is: Icon1 Filename (mandatory) XPM file contains an icon (48x48) for 1st XKB group. Icon2 Filename (mandatory) XPM file contains an icon (48x48) for 2nd XKB group. Icon3 Filename (mandatory) XPM file contains an icon (48x48) for 3rd XKB group. Icon4 Filename (mandatory) XPM file contains an icon (48x48) for 4th XKB group. IconBoom Filename (mandatory) XPM file contains an icon (48x48) for "broken Xkb". Please look in BUGS section. Sound (Yes|No) fookb will run command from "Command" value (see below), if this parameter is set to "Yes". You'll receive (non-fatal) error message if this parameter is not defined. In any other case command will not be run. Command command_to_run This command will be run if XKB locked group is changed and "Sound" is set to "Yes". X resources NB! Parameters in PropList config file take precedence over X resources! fookb.icon1 Filename fookb.icon2 Filename fookb.icon3 Filename fookb.icon4 Filename fookb.iconBoom Filename fookb.sound Yes/No fookb.command Command EXAMPLES
Here is an example of configuration file. { Icon1 = "/usr/local/share/fookb/icon1.xpm"; Icon2 = "/usr/local/share/fookb/icon2.xpm"; Icon3 = "/usr/local/share/fookb/icon3.xpm"; Icon4 = "/usr/local/share/fookb/icon4.xpm"; IconBoom = "/usr/local/share/fookb/crash.xpm"; Sound = "Yes"; Command = "/usr/bin/play /usr/local/share/fookb/click.au"; } Here is an example of app-defaults file. fookb.icon1: /usr/local/share/fookb/icon1.xpm fookb.icon2: /usr/local/share/fookb/icon2.xpm fookb.icon3: /usr/local/share/fookb/icon3.xpm fookb.icon4: /usr/local/share/fookb/icon4.xpm fookb.iconBoom: /usr/local/share/fookb/crash.xpm fookb.sound: Yes fookb.command: /home/bgates/bin/playmssound FILES
~/GNUstep/Defaults/FOOkb fookb defaults (for Window Maker enabled version). ~/.fookb fookb defaults (for Window Maker disabled version). BUGS
Sometimes fookb receives message about changing XKB group, but message.state.group does not point to any existing XKB group. In this case fookb will show IconBoom (from config file) picture. As far as I know the only way to look at this bug is to run vmware. VERSION
This man page is [hopefully] up-to-date for version 3.0 of fookb. AUTHORS
