Solaris 10 xdmcp problem

I recently installed Solaris 10 on my E2900.

However I can not connect to it using xdmcp (exceed).

I checked a few things:

dtlogin is running but looks misconfigured despite my best efforsts:

/usr/dt/bin/dtlogin -daemon -udpPort 0is what shows up when I do a ps command. I think using port 0 disables xdmcp.

I have tried everything to either set it to port 177 manually. I configured the Xconfig file but that still doesn't work.

Everytime I kill the process and start it up manually it always uses the udpPort 0 even if I supply it a command line argument.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks,

Kent

The recent version of Solaris 10 has "secure by default" controls so that most things are disabled.

You can either take the whole system back to the "open" state, or you can control them explicitly.

In SMF, the cde-login service has a property called "dtlogin/args". Right now it is set to "-udpPort 0". If you set that property to null, then it will startup and listen on the default UDP port. You can change the property with svccfg.
