Where, oh where, did I set the lock log in CDE ???

I must be losing my marbles ... Years ago I configured the lock logo in CDE to be the company logo instead of the pretty HP CDE picture. I know where to find the bitmap file for the logo, but I can't remember where to tell CDE which bit map to use, nor the details of the variable. I thought it ought to be somewhere around /etc/dt/config/Xresources, but it isn't.

All help gratefully received, but I won't be back in the office until Monday.

p.s. Alex please let other people try to get points first, cos I know you've got the 10 in the bag ;-)

Re: Where, oh where, did I set the lock log in CDE ???

the logo for the login screen is set up in:
/etc/dt/config//Xresources

where probably is C

that is if you made copies of the file from under /usr/dt/config//...

your probably looking for the
Dtlogin*logo*bitmapFile resource
this is probably the same bitmap used
for the login screen and the lock screen

Sharon,

As Curt points out, it's most likely in either /etc/dt/config/C/Xresources or /usr/dt/config/C/Xresources. Good luck with collecting your marbles - hopefully they haven't gotten too far away!

Marbles recovered safely! The resource is Dtsession*lockImageName which is in /usr/dt/app-defaults//Dtsession and its analogue in the /etc/dt path.
