Hi all. I'm afraid this is a summary in name only as I have not been able to
solve the problem. My original question is at the end.
Unfortunately, I only got three replies: one suggestion which didn't apply to
my environment, and a pair of "me toos", so I'm still at loss. I did stumble
across a Sun XDM FAQ, which looked like it might solve the problem:
14. Why does quitting one session from one XTerminal cause all XTerminals
to reset ?
The most likely reason for the resource:
DisplayManager*reset
in the $OPENWINHOME/lib/xdm/xdm-config file is being set to:
$OPENWINHOME/lib/xdm/Xreset
If the entry does exist in the xdm-config file:
DisplayManager*reset: $OPENWINHOME/lib/xdm/Xreset
it should be changed to:
DisplayManager._0.reset: $OPENWINHOME/lib/xdm/Xreset
The xdm process should be restarted.
Unfortunately, this didn't work. :-( Thanks to the following for replying:
