xterm set up

[Rogelio Ordinario]

Please let me know procedure on setting up xterm server on a400 . What needs to be done on pc-side for users to access the xterm server thru reflection

Hi:

Normally you need do nothing on the server side to enable X access. The default HP-UX install handles it. You then use an XDMCP Broadcast connection from ReflectionX and you should see a CDE login.

On hpux side make sure dtlogin is running on the server :this is installed from the CDE runtime Env located on the core O/S.

As to RX : see A.Clay stevensons suggestion or use RX's client wizard utility ?

if you are still having problems, make sure CDE was installed on the system.
You can check with:
# swinstall | more
This will list all "Packages" that are installed on the system, not necissarily all programs installed. But CDE is a package and should be listed by swinstall if it's there. If it isn't there you will have to add it. Send up a reply and me, or someone can tell you how to add it to your system.

Hello Rogelio,

first check, wether the daemon "dtlogin" is actually
running: "ps -ef | grep dtlogin".
If not, then start it: "/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start"
and check again.
The next step would be to configure you Reflection/X
properly: start it on your windows box, and go through
all the setup options, verifying that:
- use "X-Terminal" not "MS Windows"
- use the font server (perhaps from your HPUX box)
- have choosen the matching keyboard (I did get the
japanese one a lot on HP Brio PCs automagically)
- use the "XDMCP query" selection for your hp box
(use the ip-addr first, just to make sure you will not run
into name resolution problems).

HTH,
Wodisch
