Question kde on AIX
Hello,
I'm not sure if I'm posting this on the correct section but hopefully sopmeone will be able to help me.
Issue: I've installed kde3.0 on aix5.3, but cannot get the gui to start when I execute ./startkde .
The error I recieve is the following:
sh: iceauth: not found
DCOPClient::attachInternal. Attach failed Authentication Rejected, reason : None of the authentication protocols specified are supported and host-based authentication failed
ICE Connection rejected!

What do I need to fix this?

Greatly appreciate it,

I figured it out, I installed X11/Samples from AIX5.3 cd. This package contains the iceauth program which KDE uses.
All is good...for now!

thanks,
