KEAX problem

[Morongwa]

Hi

I have installed Keax on my PC to use it on my hp-ux11.00 machines, I have one machine that has a problem with it, when ever I try logging in using Keax it gives me a blank CDE and just hang, and other servers does not have a problem using the same PC's Keax application. Please help, I desperatly need to resolve this problem.

Hi

Thanks for your quick response, ping -ov ps 64 2 is working but, nslookup for the pc is not working, and dr_dt finished with no errors but 4 Warnings about the file permissions. Anything I can do to resolve it?

Thanks

resolve the nslookup issues by means of either your DNS server entries or via /etc/hosts ....

both systems will need to resolve one anothers ip and hostname for X/CDE to work correctly .... X/CDE uses hostname as the basis for the DISPLAY name .....

nslookup does not resolve also on other servers, but keax works fine there, and it's being working all along on this other server until now.

Hi


/var/dt/Xerrors

Does it contain anything.

Try stopping and restarting the cde

Hi Steve,

I stoped and restarted cde, but this having the same problem.

[Robert-Jan Goossens]

Hi,

I think you are missing a font server.

# ps -ef | grep xfs

If no font server was running on the system:

Verify that RUN_X_FONT_SERVER is set to 1 in the /etc/rc.config.d/xfs file:

RUN_X_FONT_SERVER=1

Start the font server:

# /sbin/init.d/xfs start

Regards,
Robert-Jan

Hi Robert-Jan

The xfs is running fine, and the RUN_X_FONT_SERVER is set to 1. Everything looks fine but CDE still hangs after I log in.

Hi

Add the ip and name of your pc to /etc/hosts


Then try it
