hello Denny, the dialog box you speak about should be this one: http://toastytech.com/guis/solowwarning.gif. as fas as i remember it pop-ups when you use openwindows instead ot CDE on systems running Solaris 8 2/02 or later. i am not sure where the dialog writes it's stuff in order to be disabled - however you could try doing the following: on the solaris system login locally while selecting openwindows from the "Options | Session" menu and login using the user name that you use while logging from the PC running exceed. the dialog should appear again - now click "Check here to disable this message" and "Continue"... then logoff. You may try to login again on the Solarus machine to see if the dialog is gone - if it is, then there is a high probability that when you start the proprietary app from the PC runing exceed the dialog will not show up. i have not tested this and i am only guessing but you could give it a try. greetings, Stoyan Angelov _______________________________________________ Solaris-Users mailing list [email protected] http://www.filibeto.org/mailman/listinfo/solaris-users
