Hi,
OK so attachments don't work :-(
xstartup:-
#!/bin/sh
#xrdb $HOME/.Xresources
#xsetroot -solid grey
#xterm -geometry 80x24+10+10 -ls -title "$VNCDESKTOP Desktop" &
/usr/dt/bin/Xsession &
vncserver :-
# Add font path and color database stuff here, e.g.:
#
# $cmd .= " -fp /usr/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/";
$cmd .= " -fp
/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/F3bitmaps/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Speedo/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/misc/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi/,/usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts/Xt+/";
# $cmd .= " -co /usr/lib/X11/rgb";
$cmd .= " -co /usr/openwin/lib/rgb";

Hope this helps
Cheers

Hi,
I have VNC working with Solaris 7 and CDE and have attached the xstartup script from
~/.vnc and the Xvnc startup script called vncserver.
Take a look at the lines after the comment:-
#Add font path and color database stuff here
Hope this helps.
Cheers
Richard.

mmm ... I'm logging as root and /.Xresources does not exist, altough I'm able
to
log phisically on the machine as root without any problem. I tried to xrdb
/usr/dt/config/es/Xresources but it does not make any difference.

Yes, a lot of times.

Yes.

PATH is fine.

I just check if dtwm was running, but it's not running. I have this on

It seems that dthello refuses to start and thus dtwm is also not started.
I also tried to start it following instructions provided by Maeda Atusi:

If I do that I get 4 errors from Xsession like this ones:
/usr/openwin/bin/xset: bad font path element (#37), possible causes are:
Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
Directory missing fonts.dir
Incorrect font server address or syntax
If I change DTXSERVERLOCATION to local then

If I just start without twm and then start dtwm it doees nothing, maybe the
problem seems to be that dtwm does not find the fonts that it requires for
some reason (-dt-interface-***). I aslo tried to xset all font paths that
contains -dt-interface fonts is /usr/openwin/lib/locale/*/fonts/* but does
not make any difference.
