Setting Up Xmcd
  • Download and unzip the depot--hpux.cae.wisc.edu

  • swinstall -s /tmp/xmcd-2.5-sd-10.20.depot xmcd

  • export XMCD_LIBDIR=/opt/xmcd/lib/X11

  • edit /opt/xmcd/lib/X11/config/common.cfg--change device: /dev/rdsk/c1t2d0

  • copy /opt/xmcd/lib/X11/config/device.cfg to c1t2d0 in same directory--no extension on this file

  • chown root:sys /opt/xmcd/bin/X11/xmcd

  • chmod u+s /opt/xmcd/bin/X11/xmcd

    • The only difficulty I had was that swinstall didn't want to run through an ssh session. Once I logged in at the console and ran it, everything was fine.
