  • 1.  X11 after AIXPert

    Hi all,

     

    Something stroke me as a curiosity.

    In aixpert (HLS), one of the policies is to disable X-Server (hls_xhost).

    Is this somehow related to the sudden inability of our XManager to serve as the display for the AIX 7.1 box?

    What makes me curious is why disabling X-Server on the AIX box would make XManger unable to serve as the display.

    I have also tried X11 forwarding (via sshd_config) as well as enabling dt (/etc/inittab) and even ttdbserver (/etc/inetd.conf) just for trial and error's sake.

    No avail.

     

    Now, I am confused as what actually went disabled/blocked by aixpert to render XManager incapable of acting as the X-Server (port 177/tcp).

     

    Any ideas?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

     

    Thanks,

    Adley
