Unable to login to HP UX system

[HPUX Admin_2]

When i try to login to HPUX System it gives the erroe as

The desktop messaging sysytem could not be started.

To correct the problem:

1. Chosse [OK] to return to login screen.

2. Select Failsafe Session from the login screen's option
menu and log in.

3. Check to see that the desktop is properly installed,
the hoastname is correct (/etc/hosts) and that the
network is properly configured.




I was able to login to system before and i cant restart the system its a Licence Server.

So please help.

Are you using an application on a PC/laptop to access the UX server?

If so can you provide some details about the PC and app?

If not are you logging in directly via CDE on the HP ux server itself?

Hi Rohit

Just follow the steps

Copy the nsswitch.files to the nsswitch.conf.

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

If you use dns, edit the the line

hosts: files
to
hosts: files [NOTFOUND=continue] dns


have fun!!!
