Re: any gui interface to access hpux ??

I've been using Cygwin to connect to CDE from Windows. It's a free XServer and UNIX command line for Windows. It seems to take a long time to install but works with any GUI on UNIX or Linux.

Once installed, it opens to a command line and you enter:
XWin -query address
where address is either the name (if it's in your hosts file) or IP address of the HP-UX server. You will then get the CDE desktop to log into.

Mike
