tftp font server and xterm
I have to setup a hpux 11.11 server as tftp font server and boot entria II xterm from this server.
I installed the netstation software and configured the networking on xterm. The xterm tries to boot. It passes initial screens and gets x mark for mouse pointer and stops.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.

Re: tftp font server and xterm
Sounds like a font problem .... you could interrogate the xterminals log file via F12 config screen : see the Diagnostic section or use remsh get log to check.
Qu:s is CDE running on the 11.11 system you are xdmcp'ing to ps -ef ¦ grep dtlogin ?
Qu: is xfs running , if not ->
To do this a few things are required:
1 - The font server needs to be configured to include the CDE
fonts in its catalog
EDIT: /etc/X11/fs/config
Append ",/usr/dt/config/xfonts/C" to the end of the
"catalogue = ..." line
EDIT: /etc/rc.config.d/xfs
Set the following variable: "RUN_X_FONT_SERVER=1"
EXECUTE: /sbin/init.d/xfs start
If the font-server is already running, kill it and
restart it.
2 - Force CDE to add the font-server to the X-Server font-path
by editing the Xsetup file. (NOTE: This steps REQUIRES
the IP address of the CDE session server. You can get
this information by running: nslookup `hostname`.)
COPY: /usr/dt/config/Xsetup to /etc/dt/config/Xsetup
EDIT: /etc/dt/config/Xsetup
Add the following line to /etc/dt/config/Xsetup replacing
"IPADDRESS" with the IP address of the server as returned
from "nslookup `hostname`":
$XDIR/xset fp+ tcp/IPADDRESS:7000 1>/dev/null
/etc/rc.config.d/xfs start
add the fontservers address to the xterminal see the Xserver Font section via the f12 config screen, reboot xterminal for changes to take effect : check with remsh get config.
