What do you mean by "X browser"?

"Not working" is not a very useful
description. What, exactly, did you do?
What, exactly, happened when you did it?

Hi Rajesh

If you want to connect with X browser, you should have to install CDE on 11.31,CDE Environment is not installed by default.

# swlist |grep CDE
CDE-English B.11.31 English CDE Environment

The system is not listening on UDP port 177, so the dtlogin process is probably not running, and certainly not listening for XDCMP requests.

(XDCMP is the technology used by things like ReflectionX and your xbrowser to set up an X connection. It is not very secure, so sometimes disabling it is a security policy requirement. The recommended technology for running remote X applications in a secure way is SSH with X forwarding enabled.)

Dtlogin is part of CDE (Common Desktop Environment). In HP-UX 11.31, CDE is no longer installed by default. This is because 11.31 is a pure server OS, and desktop tools are not essential in a server.

For CDE install and start-up instructions, please see this thread:

I don't use XDMCP, so I know nothing, but
around here "netstat -an" seems to be more
useful than "netstat -a":

dyi # netstat -a | grep -i xdmcp
dyi # netstat -an | grep '\.177'
udp 0 0 *.177 *.*

From what I've read, dtlogin is the program
which offers this service. Is it running?

ps -el | grep dtlogin

Around here:

dyi # UNIX_STD=95 ps -lC dtlogin
F S UID PID PPID C PRI NI ADDR SZ WCHAN TT
Y TIME CMD
401 S 0 1832 1809 0 154 20 e00000014dbb0a00 176 e00000013ecd9272 ?
00:00:00 dtlogin
401 S 0 1809 1773 0 154 20 e00000014dacb980 160 e00000013e2a1080 ?
00:00:00 dtlogin

man dtlogin

From your connecting X-client try something similar:
(/usr/bin/X11/dtterm -fn 6x13 -sb -sl 500 -ls -bg white -fg blue -display %IP#% -name %T% &)

you may have to zero out .Xauthority in your root/user home.
cat /dev/null > .Xauthority

I had issues originally connecting to 11.31 with a x-window client (reflections) however putty worked fine.
