That looks like a 1 not an L in the command name. Typo?
8) reboot
I now get the CDE login graphical login screen
1) Enter username
2) Enter password
3) Look at Starting CDE splash screen
4) Full CDE desktop starts up
5) Get "Action Required" dialog saying "The desktop messaging system
could not be started". While this is open, you can't interact with the
rest of the desktop. When you close it, the desktop exits and you go
back to the login screen
Discover from searching that portmap needs to be running for ttsession
(ToolTalk) to work, so start that:
1) echo "portmap=YES" >> /etc/rc.conf
2) /etc/rc.d/portmap start
Aha. How did you find this, please?
