Hello,

I hope you can help, as google et. al have proved unable to!

I am running VNC4.0 on Solaris 8 (2/04), via inetd. My inetd.conf line is thus:
vnc-1152x864x24 stream tcp nowait root /space/tools/bin/Xvnc Xvnc -inetd -query localhost -once -geometry 1152x864 -depth 24 -SecurityTypes=None -desktop="baltar-Sol8" -fp tcp/baltar:7100


I can start a session via vncviewer, and get the CDE login prompt. I can enter a username & password, but then the VNCviewer window simply disappears. vncviewer informs me "end of stream" and nothing else. I've looked at /var/dt/Xerrors:
/usr/openwin/bin/xset: bad font path element (#38), possible causes are:
Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
Directory missing fonts.dir
Incorrect font server address or syntax
Warning: Null child found in argumnet list to unmanage
dtlogin: recieved signal 11


I've looked at the font path from xset -q, and all the dirs exist and contain a fonts.dir. I've modified them all to be 777, so permissions should be fine (they have 7x5 all the way down the path). I guess I'm seeing dtlogin dying, but I've no idea why - where do I need to be looking?

Thanks for your help,

Alasdair Ferro.
