xwin32 the solution same as "XDMCP to HP-UX machine" solution

 

xwin32 the solution same as "XDMCP to HP-UX machine" solution

this is the solution:
It sounds if you see the egg timer that the XDMCP bits have worked and you are waiting to see the dtgreet and dtcopright screens which use fonts :

I'd try the following :

On the hpux system running CDE :


1 - The font server needs to be configured to include the CDE fonts in its catalog

EDIT: /etc/X11/fs/config

Append ",/usr/dt/config/xfonts/C" to the end of the "catalogue = ..." line

EDIT: /etc/rc.config.d/xfs

Set the following variable: "RUN_X_FONT_SERVER=1"

EXECUTE: /sbin/init.d/xfs start

If the font-server is already running, kill it and restart it.

2 - Force CDE to add the font-server to the X-Server font-pathby editing the Xsetup file. (NOTE: This steps REQUIRES the IP address of the CDE session server. You can get
this information by running: nslookup `hostname`.)

COPY: /usr/dt/config/Xsetup to /etc/dt/config/Xsetup
EDIT: /etc/dt/config/Xsetup

Add the following line to /etc/dt/config/Xsetup replacing
"IPADDRESS" with the IP address of the server as returned from "nslookup `hostname`":

$XDIR/xset fp+ tcp/IPADDRESS:7000 1>/dev/null

This repsonse is from the conversation in forum between:

gaby and K.Vijayaragavan, Subject "XDMCP to HP-UX machine".

Mr.K.Vijayaragavan gave the above solution.

I thank you all for the support
