      <title>Trouble loading CDE</title>
      <link>https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/trouble-loading-cde/m-p/3490759#M214853</link>
      <description>Hello:  &lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;I have 2 C3750's that are right out of the box from HP pre-loaded with 11i.  Both are giving me the same error with CDE and won't load the desktop upon boot-up.  I am almost 100% positive the network settings are correct as I have a 10.2 system that is on the same network and I valdated the settings.  When CDE attempts to load I get an error stating to check if CDE is installed properly, check the /etc/hosts file, or make sure the network&lt;BR /&gt;is configured properly.  I have looked thru the rc.log (attached) file and I don't see anything wrong.  &lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Any ideas?</description>

      <description>Scott,&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;With CDE, it's almost always a host name resolution issue.  I would try running "/sbin/set_parms initial" to go through the initial config again, re-setting hostname, ip_address, default routing, etc - then retry.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Pete</description>

      <description>Hey all:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Thanks for the reply's.  It wound up being the hostname.  The hostname my DNS team issued me was 10 char long.  Once I shortened and rebooted, CDE loaded without a problem.   Now to see if my DNS admin will issue me a new name.  &lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;The strange thing is set_parms hostname allowed me to set it to whatever I wanted.  Does anyone know what the hostame length rules are for HPUX 11i?&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;-Thanks again!</description>

      <description>Rules Regarding Hostnames&lt;BR /&gt;1.  The maximum length of a hostname is 8 characters&lt;BR /&gt;2.  Hostnames cannot have any punctuation characters in them (except for underscores).  Hostnames are made up of characters (including underscores) and numbers only.&lt;BR /&gt;3.  Hostnames are used for the sole purpose of making life easier for system users.  Hostnames need to be converted by the system to their corresponding IP addresses before communications with the desired host can occur.&lt;BR /&gt;</description>

      <description>add on to Robert's answer. 8 characters is correct.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;You can use longer names in DNS.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;edit your /etc/hosts file&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;125.x.x.45 short longname &lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Check your /etc/nsswitch.conf&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;hosts:        files dns&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;Best regards,&lt;BR /&gt;Robert-Jan&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;</description>
