CDE

[KPS]

I have a few questions about running CDE on HP-UX 11.23.

- How do I know if CDE is running?

- Is there a configurable parameter that tells it to run or not to run?

Thanks,
KPS

to check to see if it is running, issue;

ps -ef |grep dtlogin

To disable CDE

edit /etc/rc.config.d/desktop and make the follwoing change

DESKTOP=""

Look for the dtlogin or dtterm process.

Can stop/start CDE via the init scripts located in /sbin/init.d

Are you working with a character terminal? No users have an X interface? If no graphics card/terminal and no body has X capability, you can prevent it from starting at boot by the script file in /etc/rc.config.d.
