Help with CDE Root Login
Dear Forum,
I had this problem initially with HPUX 11.23, all users including root could not login via CDE or telnet. Then after some workarounds, it resolved by resetting root password via console login. After enabling back all users to login normally (via CDE or telnet), only root can not login from CDE. Now I have no idea what caused this.
I'll appreciate feedback how to restore root login from CDE back.
Thanks all for your attention

dtwsmchangebackdrop
DtWsmChangeBackdrop(API) DtWsmChangeBackdrop(API)
NAME
DtWsmChangeBackdrop -- set current workspace's backdrop
SYNOPSIS
#include <Dt/Wsm.h>
int DtWsmChangeBackdrop(
Display *display,
Window root,
char *path,
Pixmap pixmap);
DESCRIPTION
The DtWsmChangeBackdrop function works with the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), and changes the current workspace's backdrop. Applications
can use this function to implement an interface to the workspace manager.
If the DtWsmChangeBackdrop function is not successful, the most likely reason for failure is that the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), is
not running.
DtWsmChangeBackdrop sends a message to the CDE workspace manager, dtwm(1), to change the backdrop.
The path argument points to a backdrop file name. The file must be in either X Bitmap file format (with extension .bm) or Pixmap file for-
mat (with extension .pm). The workspace management services look for the file along the same path used for searching icons. The directory
/usr/dt/backdrops is the default directory if the file cannot be found along the icon search path.
ARGUMENTS
display display
root root window of the screen
path file path to bitmap file
pixmap pixmap ID of backdrop pixmap
