  dtsetup - Configure and Customize the Common Desktop Environment (CDE)


SYNOPSIS

  /usr/dt/bin/dtsetup X resources


OPTIONS

  X resources
      Specifies the standard X11 resource options. For more information, see
      the X(1X) reference page.


DESCRIPTION

  The CDE Setup application, dtsetup, provides you with a mechanism to
  customize your Common Desktop Environment by using a graphical user
  interface.

  It also provides System Administrators a means to create a CDE environment
  for various types of users.

  When you invoke the CDE Setup application, a panel of four icons are
  displayed: Quick Setup, Desktop, Login, and Services.

  From the Quick Setup icon, you or the system administrator can provide
  minimal entries to configure CDE.

  The Desktop icon lets you or the system administrator set up the front
  panel, establish various window manager resources, define starting
  applications, and set parameters for the terminal, dtmail, and dtfile
  applications.

  The Login icon lets you provide information about your login session, while
  the system administrator can also set up the system login greetings, and
  set up the X server configuration.

  The Services icon has fields for various services configuration. You are
  restricted to the choice of whether to run the Motif/OpenLook DND gateway.
  The system administrator has additional choices regarding the ToolTalk
  Session and ToolTalk Database server, as well as disabling network
  dependency and allowing inbound remote process execution.

  The CDE Setup application provides an effortless way of assembling the CDE
  front panel from available controls. Furthermore, by providing various file
  names and other specifications, the CDE Setup application allows you to
  create your own controls.

  The CDE setup application can be invoked from:

       The CDE Application Manager.
       Application Group: System_Admin
       Desktop_Apps Subgroup: Configuration

  To start the dtsetup application from the command line, enter
  /usr/dt/bin/dtsetup.

  Online help is available for the dxmtools application.  To get help, click
  on any Help button or use the Help pull-down menu.
