Unable to connect to server via Exceed

[Kevin_107]

I have just cold installed V11 and now cant connect to server via exceed (V7.1)...are there any processes on the HP server I should be looking for ?!?!

check if you have following in
/var/adm/inetd.sec file.

dtspc allow
spc allow
mserve allow

Also check the output of dr_dt command. This will give you error/warnings if any.

Check the path to X11.

How are you trying to connect, and what was the error message?

cannot connect : so do you see the hpux system listed in exceeds chooser window when you perform an xdmcp broadcast ?

NB the following process needs to be running on the hpux system : dtlogin : is it ?

if not use /usr/contrib/bin/X11/dr_dt to act as rough guide to trouble-shooting cde on hp host.

also ensure that the pc and hp are aware of each other ie they can nslookup each others hostname & ip addresses : advise add pc ip/hostname in /etc/hosts ? result ?

I have just run dr_dt and have now noticed that I have not got .dt directory...will that be on the v11 disk or the APP disk !?!

[harry d brown jr]

Restore it from some other system if possible. But I think that if you start it up from the command line it should create it.

NO ! if you mean $HOME/.dt this os only created once a user logs into cde in fact it's probably created when they log out for the first time .... keep going thru dr_dt output, and answer the other qu's I posted.

[Kevin_107]

The dtlogin process isnt running the host files are fine.

Did you check /etc/rc.config.d/desktop

it should have this as the last line:

DESKTOP=CDE

[John Dvorchak]

Sorry I hit reply before I was done. If it is blank or just 2 quote marks then change it to
DESKTOP=CDE

and the restart dtlogin

/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start
