Realvnc and dtlogin at startup: how to do?

I know how to use a "simple" vnc session.

vncpasswd
vncserver

and I had a cde session wich start on port 5901

vncviewer host:5901

But I want a "dtlogin" screen starting on port 5900 Like MacOS, how to do? I have tried to start with

vncpasswd -service
vncserver-x11 -service -vncconfigfile /etc/vnc/config

But when I connect with vncviewer I get only a black screen

Which files to modify to get dtlogin screen? System is Hp-ux 11.31 and vncserver is Realvnc

Re: Realvnc and dtlogin at startup: how to do?

Although the Hewlett Packard Response Center does not officially support VNC here are some hints you have to follow.

Go to http://www.realvnc.com and download the VNC bits from there. In addition, make sure to get the client bits for the OS you want to use to access the HP-UX system.

Install the VNC server software on the HP-UX system and start the VNC server. For example, if it was installed under /opt/vnc and a display address of 10 (6000 + 10) will be used, run

# /opt/vnc/bin/vncserver :10

Next use the vnc client on the Linux system or MS Windows system and connect to the vnc server by using the address: hp_system_name:10

NOTE: make sure to replace the string “hp_system_name” with the real full qualified system name.

This will create a $HOME/.vnc directory in the user's home directory on the HP- UX system.

Change the $HOME/.vnc/xstartup file as follows, but keep in mind that the path should be adjusted if vnc was installed in a different directory.

#!/bin/sh

[ -r $HOME/.Xresources ] && xrdb $HOME/.Xresources

Note: CDE-English is not installed as part of default installation of HPUX B.11.31, You must install it from OS DVD.
Command to verify if CDE is installed: swlist -l bundle | grep -i cde

# Under CDE the Xsession startup will start CDE in case the
# dtlogin process is already running, make sure to have dtlogin
# running.
/usr/dt/bin/Xsession &


# Start vnc config tool
/opt/vnc/bin/vncconfig -iconic &

# Connect to local xfont server, make sure it is running
/usr/bin/X11/xset fp+ tcp/localhost:7000

 

# ORIGIN RealVNC added Entries
# xsetroot -solid grey
# vncconfig -iconic &
# xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
# twm &
