[rescue] [Fwd: [SubG] HP-UX]

[Randy Bowie]

Can he log in using fail-safe(options in VUE login panel)?  If so he just
needs to edit(or create) /etc/nsswitch.conf so that he has a line similar to
the following:
hosts: files dns nis

assuming the there's an entry for `hostname` in /etc/hosts

I doubt he has HP-UX 2.7 on a 715.  :)

The older 720/730's shipped with 8.xx.  The 715 probably shipped with 9.03.

Forwarded from a friend of mine. I don't have an answer for him. Maybe
someone here does?

Goddamamazing how an interest in linux translates into an expert on all
NIX,
one of my sidekicks has an old piece of tin that's lost it's gui.

Display is poked on an extra old  Apollo 715/33  hp-ux ver 2.7

Can't open display is the error message. It's used to convert cad
drawings
from one format to another so the users need a gui, and the gui no work.
