where i can not login to the CDE

[grandtree]

I used the exceed (XDMCP mode) to connect to a hp server(hardware d280,os hp-ux11.0).I failed unless i am the root.After I had entered the CDE as a common user,a dialog was displayed on the screen.The session was restarted after i had clicked the OK button.The dialog said the desktop messaging system could not be started.I had no choice but to choose failsafe when logining.Please help me.
The picture of the screen is in the attachment.

Hi

I Don't if it's the solution
to your matter. But you can
try to remove /.dt directory.
It worked for me few month
ago...

hi,

nslookup hostname
nslookup ipaddress

does both of them give the same o/p. Try export DISPLAY "ip address of the pc"

rm -r $HOME/.dt

reboot

good luck,

kaps

hi Kapil Raj thank you for your reply.With your help,I succeed to solve the problem.
Having logined as a common user with telnet,I try "nslookup hostname" and fail for DNS error(DNS doesn't work properly,because I did not configure it).However,in /etc/nsswitch.conf,files is the first choice for nslookup.Afer I switch to root,"nslookup" works.Why?I examine the /etc/nsswitch.conf file's permission and find the previous common user has not read permission, so i change the permission.Then all things are OK.
