Symptoms:
	PHSS_23350:
	  When patch PHSS_20468 is part of the VVOS install media,
	  nongraphics systems get CDE startup failures on
	  the console.

	PHSS_20468:
	  Users are unable to log into a graphics console CDE login
	  environment if a system has multiple network cards
	  configured.  This problem was introduced by patch
	  PHSS_18392.

Defect Description:
	PHSS_23350:
	  The /usr/dt/config/Xservers file was getting copied to
	  /etc/dt/config/Xservers by the product start script
	  (/usr/dt/config/dtrc.d/20_graph_conf) and did
	  not properly comment out the LOCAL display line for
	  nongraphics systems.
	Resolution:
	  Ship the standard /usr/dt/config/Xservers file (as
	  originally shipped by CDE) containing the '*' for
	  LOCAL display configuration.  The 20_graph_conf
	  script properly handles this configuration.  Note
	  that CDE was patched to fix the multihomed host
	  problem by PHSS_21112.

	PHSS_20468:
	  The Xauthentication mechanism within CDE and X is not
	  maintaining the proper hostname/display identity for a
	  multihomed host, which causes Xauthentication to fail when
	  attempting to display to the X server.

	Resolution:
	  Change the system default display configuration in
	  /usr/dt/config/Xservers from '*' to 'unix:0'.  The '*'
	  translated to the hostname:0 display value, which is
	  incorrectly interpreted by CDE.  'unix:0' uses unix domain
	  sockets for local display, which does not exhibit the
	  problem.

	------------------------------------------------------------
	1. Back up your system before installing a patch.

	2. Login as root.

	3. Copy the patch to the /tmp directory.

	4. Move to the /tmp directory and unshar the patch:

		cd /tmp
		sh PHSS_23350

	5. Run swinstall to install the patch:

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \
			  -s /tmp/PHSS_23350.depot

	By default swinstall will archive the original software in 
	/var/adm/sw/save/PHSS_23350.  If you do not wish to retain a
	copy of the original software, use the patch_save_files option:

		swinstall -x autoreboot=true -x patch_match_target=true \
			  -x patch_save_files=false -s /tmp/PHSS_23350.depot

	WARNING: If patch_save_files is false when a patch is installed,
		 the patch cannot be deinstalled.  Please be careful
		 when using this feature.

	For future reference, the contents of the PHSS_23350.text file is 
	available in the product readme:

		swlist -l product -a readme -d @ /tmp/PHSS_23350.depot

	To put this patch on a magnetic tape and install from the
	tape drive, use the command:

		dd if=/tmp/PHSS_23350.depot of=/dev/rmt/0m bs=2k

Special Installation Instructions:
	After the successful installation of this patch, the
	customer should restart the CDE environment by either
	rebooting the system or by performing the following
	commands as root:

		/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc stop
		/sbin/init.d/dtlogin.rc start

	If, after restarting the CDE environment, the customer is
	still unable to establish a CDE login session, perform the
	following steps:
	 1. Compare the contents of /etc/dt/config/Xservers with
	    /usr/dt/config/Xservers.
	 2. Determine if the contents of /usr/dt/config/Xservers
	    can be used as the DisplayName setting.
	 3. If so (or if you are not sure), do the following:
	     mv /etc/dt/config/Xservers /etc/dt/config/Xservers.prev
	     cp /usr/dt/config/Xservers /etc/dt/config/Xservers

	If you still encounter problems, please contact HP Support.
