cde connection problem

how to open port no 6000 in hp-unix 11

[Jayakrishnan G Naik]

Hi Akhilesh,

In unix servers, the ports related to a service is opened when the service is up and running. Check whether all your CDE server services are up and running.

Check whether cde service is up
# ps -ef|grep -i dtlogin

configuration file to check
/etc/rc.config.d/desktop

To start the cde

/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start

run netstat -na|grep 6000 to see whether the server listens at this port.

If the problem persists again, you need to check the connectivity between the system from you attempt the connection --> to the server.

Thanks & Regards

What makes you think that it's not "open"
now? (What does "open port" mean to you?)

> [...] hp-unix 11

Not a very detailed description of anything.

uname -a

Why ask in a Linux forum instead of in an
HP-UX forum?

If it's not too much to ask, what, exactly
are you trying to do?

try answering the following

uname -a of unix server ?

p -ef | grep dtlogin ?

nslookup of pc and unix server ... outputs ? feel free to run on both systems involved.

fyi ports 6000 177 and possibly 7000 maybe of interest but is there a firewall involved ?
are these on the same subnet ?
has this ever worked ?
do other unix servers work ?

I'm assumming manual connection means you are trying to perform an XDMCP session to display CDE locally on the pc via an X emulator ?

syntax ? errors ? anything ? any client logs ?

Assuming this is the same server as you are referring to installing PHSS_39824 (your Oracle install problem) my guess is this is 11.31 and hence the followiing could also be relevant :

my psychic powers aren't that good so get back to us on both the above.
