Please help me

Shalom,

By default HP-UX 11.31 does not install CDE.

Insert the first DVD, mount it and run the install. The easy way is swinstall -i


Then choose.

Then install

Also:
/sbin/init.d/xfs start

edit /etc/rc.config.d/xfs to enable auto start of the font server.

Check if CDE is installed on the server

# swlist -l product |grep -i cde

Check if you are able to login to CDE in FailSafe mode

Check if /etc/nsswitch.conf exists. If not, I would advice you to copy it

# cp /etc/nsswitch.files /etc/nsswitch.conf

If it exist, see that it has the following entries

hosts: files dns
ipnodes: files dns

Also check if the hostname and IP address are mentioned in the /etc/hosts file
