Sorry for the delay in the summary but I wanted to hear back from Sun tech supports escalation group. Thanks to the following sunmanagers sysadmins for their troubleshooting assistance: Murdock, Matt <Matt.Murdock@brooks.com> Alan Crosby <a.crosby@ctu.mrc.ac.uk> Rick von Richter <rickv@memec.com> <James.Swanson_CONTRACTOR@dtra.mil> <nouce@mighty.co.za> Steve Sandau <ssandau@gwi.net> Answer: It's a Tooltalk bug. This was first noticed in Solaris 9 but was not fixed in Solaris 10. By disabling IPv6 in Solaris 10, the CDE login problem was resolved. This bug affects CDE, dtmail, and anything else that requires Tooltalk. Refer to Document ID 6206423 (viewable for Sun Spectrum customers only). Sun is working on a Solaris 10 patch. My advice would be not to install IPv6 during the Solaris 10 OS installation until the patch is released.

My home directory physically resides on tangier and my login name is "carolyn". Prior to the Solaris 10 upgrade I tarred my entire "carolyn" home directory from tangier to another machine, did a clean Solaris 10 install then tarred my "carolyn" directory back to tangier. Now I can't log in as "carolyn" into the slink CDE login screen. It just hangs. I tried removing my .dt, .dtlogin, .cshrc, .profile and that didn't work. I have no trouble logging into slink remotely via ssh. I have no trouble logging in via the CDE as carolyn on any other hosts. I have no trouble logging in via the slink CDE as any other user. I upgraded a 3rd machine to Solaris 10 and am having the same trouble logging into it as carolyn via the CDE. I originally saw a message on slink "/usr/dt/bin/ttsession Error: rpc.tdbserverd on tangier is not running "/usr/dt/bin/ttsession [2112]:[ID908584 daemon.error]_Tt_db_client::connectToDb():fcntl(F_SETFD): Bad file number" even though tangier's ttdb server was running. Per Sun tech support, I tried cleaning the Tooltalk database per SRDB 12729 on slink and tangier but still no go. I no longer see the ttdb error message or any other error messages and the .dt/startlog looks fine: --- Mon Apr 25 09:26:06 EDT 2005 --- /usr/dt/bin/Xsession starting... --- starting /usr/dt/bin/dthello & --- starting /usr/openwin/bin/speckeysd --- Xsession started by dtlogin --- starting /usr/dt/bin/dtsession_res -load -system --- sourcing //.dtprofile... --- sourcing /usr/dt/config/Xsession.d/0010.dtpaths... --- sourcing /usr/dt/config/Xsession.d/0015.sun.env... --- sourcing /usr/dt/config/Xsession.d/0020.dtims... --- sourcing /usr/dt/config/Xsession.d/0030.dttmpdir... --- sourcing /usr/dt/config/Xsession.d/0040.xmbind... --- starting /usr/dt/bin/dtsearchpath --- starting /usr/dt/bin/dtappgather & --- starting /usr/dt/bin/dsdm & --- session log file is /dev/null --- DTSOURCEPROFILE is 'true' (see //.dtprofile) --- execing /usr/dt/bin/dtsession with a /sbin/sh login shell ... --- starting desktop on /dev/pts/3 /usr/dt/bin/ttsession[21421]: starting So it seems it is something related to my home directory even though it was tarred from the original carolyn directory. What could possibly be the problem? =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Carolyn Mayr (IT Specialist/UNIX sysadm) Voice: 410-293-6808 (sec-6800) Computer Science Department, DivMath&Sci Email: carolyn@cs.usna.edu 572M Holloway Road, Michelson Hall, 9F FAX: 410-293-2686 U.S. Naval Academy WWW: http://www.cs.usna.edu Annapolis, MD 21402-5002 USNA: 410-293-1000 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= _______________________________________________ sunmanagers mailing list sunmanagers@sunmanagers.org http://www.sunmanagers.org/mailman/listinfo/sunmanagersReceived on Wed Apr 27 14:09:03 2005
