Hi, Issac

re-install the CDE which will be in one of the appliaction media.

fyi : CDE Run Time Env is bundled on the core O/S not the applications CD's.

As to why this is occuring : I'm not too clear on the actual problem description

but it sounds as if you are connecting to an hpux server - O/S ? from pc's or xterminals - s/w involved ? Intermittently you are unable to gain access to the hpux host and login thru CDE - correct ?

I'd suspect networking here but you may want to look at /usr/contrib/bin/X11/dr_dt output just in case.

Next time this occurs make use of nslookup and ping and whether other applications fail : say a telnet session to the hpux host ?

Alex,

What should do when i see this file /usr/contrib/bin/X11/dr_dt...???

dr_dt : it is a script so please run it and examine the output : it's self explanatory in that it lists warning and errors and suggests the way to fix them.

Alex, I've run that script dr_dt but i got Error=0

So what should do now..?

You mean the script ran and reported no errors right ?

If that's the case I'd fill in the blanks to the questions already asked so we get a better explanation of the problem and s/w involved.

I'd include whether DNS is involved and if possible attach the output of dr_dt to this post it would help .....
