X Windows auto login

I've got a B1000 and am accessing it via exceed from my XP workstation. I've only got a TTY terminal for the system console.
How do I turn off the X Windows auto login at the workstation?

Re: X Windows auto login

To disable login server start up when the system is booted, type:
/usr/dt/bin/dtconfig -d
This will tell the system not to start the login server when you next reboot.

Re: X Windows auto login

Hi Dave,

I am assuming you still want to access CDE via exceed from your XP machine, but just don't want it to start an X server locally on the HP-UX workstation.

# cd /etc/dt/config
# cp /usr/dt/config/Xservers .
# vi Xservers

Comment out the last line. Probably looks something like:

* Local local@console /usr/bin/X11/X :0

Then restart dtlogin.

# /sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc stop
# /sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start

Hope this helps...
