    You need to have two different names in /etc/hosts for the two adapters, or
    CDE is going to get confused.

    The way to balance the load is to have multiple DNS entries with the same
    name for the two different IP's. IF DNS is configured properly, then
    systems who happen to be on the local subnet will use the local IP for
    access, while those on foreign subnets will round robin the entries.

    You should also put aliases in DNS for the hostnames specified in
    /etc/hosts, so you can forcibly access either by name if you wish.

    At least, change the second entry in /etc/hosts to EC1-MVD-1, or something.

    John,

    Yes, I've got the localhost entry.
    What do you think about the other two entries ?
    Should I use different names ?
    I've been told to use the same hostname and and a different alias with a two

    adapters configuration.

    Thanks,
    javier

    Javier,

    Do you have a localhost entry? I've had a CDE not work because it was
    missing that before. Should look something like this:

    127.0.0.1 localhost loopback # Standard loopback

    Usually it's near the top.

    John,

    Yes, my /etc/hosts goes like this:

    192.168.2.1 EC1-MVD lan0
    10.95.2.1 EC1-MVD lan1

    Need these entries to be changed to get dtlogin to work again ?

    Thanks,
    javier

    Check the hosts file. Possible you've got two entries with the same
    name.

    CDE is a network protocol, box has to be able to get to itself over one
    or another NIC to make it work, which is why I say check /etc/hosts.

    Hello Admins,

    I've got a HP Workstation B2600 running HP-UX 11i.
    I was able to login to CDE from the console until I configured a second
    lan adapter.
    Now the console only shows the sand-clock and never again comes up with
    the dtlogin prompt.
    The only change was the second lan configure via SAM.
    Telneting the box is OK.

    Any help will be welcome.

    Best regards,
    javier
