The product DCE-KT-Tools (and the bundle B6733AA) for 11.00 are no
longer valid for HP-UX 11i and will corrupt the DCE-Core product
if installed on an HP-UX 11.11 system. The corruption is the
replacement of the DCE 1.8 version of libdcekt.1 with DCE 1.7.1
version of libdcekt.1.

How to check?

1. 'll /usr/lib/libdcekt.1' -- does it exist?
2. 'what /usr/lib/libdcekt.1' -- is there a string saying
HP DCE/9000 1.8 Module: libdcekt.1 (this is good -- for 11.11)
HP DCE/9000 1.7.1 Module: libdcekt.1 (bad - for 11.00)
3. 'swlist -l product | grep DCE -- is the DCE-KT-Tools for 11.00 in list?

see KBRC00011973 for how to resolve

one way is to copy it from another 11i system with same DCE patch level if possible

create the symbolic link:
cp libdcekt.1 /usr/lib/libdcekt.1
chmod 555 /usr/lib/libdcekt.1
chown bin:bin /usr/lib/libdcekt.1
cd /usr/lib
ln -s libdcekt.1 libdcekt.sl

Hi Pravin,

Check bdf -l output. DO you have enough space in /usr ?
