Change hostname / IP and ONE login hangs up

[SARDIN Christian]

HP UX 10.20
I have changed, by hand in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf the hostname and IP address (same group)

It boots OK
Most accounts are OK.
But... the one I need more hangs up !
If I rlogin , I can see that dtappsearchpath is taking 90% CPU !
If I kill it, login proceeds, and things are working fine !

I tried to suppress .cshrc (csh !) .dt and .dtprofile with no success !

If I put hostname/IP back : it works !!!

Please HELP !

Thanks

Do you use DNS? If so, did you change the hostname and IP in your DNS server?

Did you change the hostname and IP address in the /etc/hosts file? If not you need to do that.

This sounds like a name / address resolution problem.

Christian,

Do you use NFS? It sounds to me like there's an NFS reference to the old hostname in dtappsearchpath for this user.

Hi,

Once you kill the dtappsearchpath process and let the user login, look at the users' $DTAPPSEARCHPATH and make sure you don't see anything interesting there.

Look at 'man dtappsearchpath' for more information.
