Hi,

Make sure that your workstation's IP address and hostname are correct. Do this by checking the following:
/etc/init.d/netconf
/etc/hosts
/etc/nsswitch.conf - check for 'hosts: files'
/etc/resolv.conf (if you are using DNS)

Make sure that dtlogin has been started.
/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start

Then try to log in under CDE.

Regards,
Mark

Hi

/var/dt/Xerrors

$HOME/.dt/startlog

$HOME/.dt/errorlog

Suspect something in profile is killing you

in /etc/profile or .profile

DISPLAY=$(who -m -u | awk '{print $8}'):0.0
export DISPLAY

This should make sure the DISPLAY variable, the most common issue here is set properly for remote users.

Try,

cd $HOME (of that user)
mv .dt .dt.org
mv .dtprofile .dtprofile.org

and login again ..
it works sometimes ..

hi,

I had the same problem. I changed permission on tmp directory.After that i had the same problem like you. Did you perhaps do the same thing ?
Just put the permission back.
Another sulution is to delete your .DT files.

Success
