Good morning:

A user is getting trouble logging in a CDE session through an X
emulator from his PC. The $HOME/.dt/errorlog file features the following:

Thu Nov 27 09:51:26 2003
Workspace Manager: I/O error on display:: tx38:0.0

tx38 is an old alias name that has been replaced by smc38 in the /etc/hosts
file of the server. The display should now be smc38:0.0 instead of tx38:0.0
A fresh $HOME/.dt directory has been created, but still the errorlog shows
tx38:0.0 as display. Is there something remaining somewhere on the server
with the old display information that I have to get rid of ?

The server runs solaris 9 with CDE 1.5.
