Harold- Thanks for the info.
First, some new info -- I accidentally left a "hung" session open overnight and returned to find the CDE login window! It turns out that it *does* work, but takes roughly 15 - 20minutes before the actual login window appears on the "non-working" systems. Additionally, some apps don't appear to work properly even after the login succeeds. However, if I use the same login on the working system, all apps work as expected. The error messages lead me to believe it is a font issue of some kind....which appears to be supported by looking at a successful login vs. a hung one...the line it's hung up on appears to do with fonts. On Solaris 8, we are connecting through the server process dtlogin. When running that in debug mode, I find that the difference between the "hanging" machines and the working one is: -- snip -- (chi70:0) setLang() - Current Lang = C (chi70:0) setLang() - Desired Lang = C (chi70:0) setLang() - Locale has NOT changed (chi70:0) LANG=C (chi70:0) Source(): /usr/dt/config/Xsetup This is where it "hangs"...when I connect with the working system, it is identical (except for IP address) but continues after the "Source()" line as follows: --snip-- (chi54:0) ApplyFontPathMods() for chi54.chicago.jgsullivan.com:0 (chi54:0) Foreign display (chi54:0) setLang () (chi54:0) setLang() - Current Lang = C (chi54:0) setLang() - Desired Lang = C (chi54:0) setLang() - Locale has NOT changed (chi54:0) LANG=C (chi54:0) Greeter environment: . . . --snip-- Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
