If you've 'hardened' your system as thoroughly as it sounds, you've probably
gotten rid of your CDE login server; that would explain why you don't see
the login screen.  There should be an instance of dtlogin running as a
daemon
eg          root   367     1  0   Mar 20 ?        0:05 /usr/dt/bin/dtlogin
-daemon 

This is watching a socket that Xvnc connects to when it starts with the
-query switch.

Does not work for me :(

BTW yesterday night I get it working ok, but with no dtlogin screen. The
problems
I had may be related to the fact that I take some security mesaures removing
setuid files, almost all services in inetd and some ones in rc2.d. The
option
-query localhost never worked for me (have tried lots of possibilities), but
now
I can run my CDE. One of the problems that I have found is about the font
server,
I have it properly activated in inetd.conf (fsadmin -e) but it seems to not
being
working (fsinfo -server localhost gives an error). I fixed it running xfs
-port 8000
and changing to -fp tcp/localhost:8000 in vncserver script and on my
xstartup script:

#!/bin/sh

xsetroot -solid black
LC_TYPE=3Des LANG=3Des /usr/dt/bin/Xsession

This gives me my localized desktop without problems.

About the fact that I never succeed to have dtlogin running I got some
diagnostic errors
that could help somebody to fix it:

automountd[124]: [ID 305627 daemon.debug] self_check: unknown host:
.DtDirDataType
ttsession[15458]: [ID 862433 daemon.error] child (15911) exited due to
signal 1

Those errors always come togehter, very strange thing with automountd :?
I also have memory errors produced by dtlogin on PAM.

Thanx & best regards ...
