Hello everybody,
on an Alpha system, all users can login just fine, using CDE.
Only one user get the following message:
Action Required
The DT messaging system could not be started.
To correct the problem:
1. Choose [OK] to return to the login screen
2. Select Failsafe Session from the login screen's option
menu and log in.
3. Check to see that your hostname exists correctly in /etc/hosts if
your
network has already been configured.
4. If your network has not yet been configured; make sure that
/etc/hosts
has the following entry in it:
127.0.0.1 localhost
The same user can login on other systems, and the user's home dirs are
shared
across the systems using DMS + NFS.
I've checked /etc/hosts and it seems O.K.:
127.0.0.1 localhost
140.105.7.148 ag3ts0.ts.infn.it ag3ts0
140.105.7.152 ag3ts2.ts.infn.it ag3ts2
140.105.6.153 axts03.ts.infn.it axts03 # BIND server
140.105.48.16 uts.univ.trieste.it uts # BIND server
(The Alpha is 140.105.7.152)
I've checked the permissions on this file and it seems O.K. too:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root system 2101 Aug 14 11:31 /etc/hosts
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Lucio
