Hi, Thanks to: Glenn Prince Peter Kunst The following document has advice on this problem: http://blogs.sun.com/gbrunett/?entry=solaris_secure_by_default_part2 Solaris 10 0606 and beyond has a new "secure by default" mode, that I have never seen as I usually Jumpstart everything and the DVD install seems to be the only place where there is an option to enable/disable the modes at install time. I actually said "Yes" to the prompt which mentions rather obliquely that network services to the system will be disabled except for SSH but doesn't describe the actual impact. Once I found the blog above, it was pretty straightforward. I was hoping this info would be in SunSolve, but it's not - having to hunt down an external blog to get this info is a bit annoying. Thanks again to everyone who assisted me. The actual solution is below and I also had to enable RPC and one or two other things as well. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Fri, 7 Mar 2008 11:20:33 +1000 From: Glenn Prince Subject: RE: remote X displays fail after Solaris 10 upgrade Well if you don't want it in SBD mode anymore you could do a: /usr/sbin/netservices open And then do a /usr/sbin/netservices limited to switch it back. If you do want to enable just the xserver stuff but leave it in SBD mode then you should be able to do the following cmd: svccfg -s x11-server setprop options/tcp_listen = boolean: true Hope this fixes it.
