Unable to Connect to Host using Exceed

[Ernesto Sierraalta]

I'm tryng to start a X-Window session using Exceed, but fails with this message.. "Unalbe to connect to host using specified start method".

This methos works fine in another server. How can I check if X-Windows is enabled?

Thanks.

Hi,

What settings are you using. check and see if dtlogin is running on the server to which you are trying to connect.

ps -ef |grep dtlogin

If it is not running start dtlogin,

/sbin/init.d/dtlogin start

Hope this helps.

First guess is that dtlogin is not running on the specified host.

Thanks.

ps -ef |grep dtlogin
root 2001 1957 0 Feb 13 ? 0:00 /usr/dt/bin/dtlogin
root 22880 12079 0 15:36:06 pts/tf 0:00 grep dtlogin

dtlogin is running.

The problem persist although the dtlogin is running.

Hi,

The problem was the following.

The /etc/inetd.conf file, was comment the rexecd line.

After uncommented, the inetd was restarted and works fine!.

Thanks.
