HI!

I'm new to HP-UX. After having reinstalled the System (B1000) with HP-UX
11.0 Core CD, i could boot the Mashine and login. After having logged in
I see the CDE Sceen but there is an error Message :

-----------------------------------------------------------------
The dektop 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 the desktop ist properly installed, the hostname is
correct(/etc/hosts) and that the network is properly configured.

For additional information see the CDE User's Guide.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately it is not possible to close this window.
By hitting OK the system returns to the login screen.
------------------------------------------------------------------

/etc/hosts :

192.168.0.150 b1000
127.0.0.1 localhost loopback
------------------------------------------------------------------

The System should get his IP from a DHCP Server that functions as DNS
and Gateway (192.168.0.1)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

The Network seems to function properly because there is a ping reply
from 192.168.0.1 and from www.google.de

Hope someone can help me.

Thanks.

Stefan

Ok, I solved the problem by editing the nsswitch.conf. Now the systems
looks up its local hosts file first.

Thanks.
