https://community.hpe.com/t5/operating-system-hp-ux/cde-setting/m-p/2552829#M917705 My CDE on HP-UX 10.2 allows several shells on the desktop. <BR />Launching user applications on CDE with single shell, so that user gets only one screen a GUI seems impossible. Is there a server side Control for this.

Gui impossible .... is this the case ? Is the single screen the CDE failsafe session or the command line ?<BR /><BR />appologies but some more details please ....
