Hello I was trying to remote connect to a solaris8 from a solaris 10 system through a XDMCP .
Ok know issue. This doesnt work. the login drops back to the solaris 10 dtgreet.

I found online a suggestion ...that seems to work:

I wrote this:
int XineramaGetState()
{
return (0);
}

I compiled it.
I saved it under /usr/lib/secure and I set in the .dtprofile of the user the

export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/secure/mylibrary.so

It works. I can now remotely graphically connect to my solaris 8 system, but...opening a terminal and running some commands like ps, ld....blablabla
now returns the following error:

Howdy, Stranger!
