       disable_glogin(1M)                                disable_glogin(1M)


       NAME
             disable_glogin, enable_glogin, start_glogin - enable, disable,
             or start the UnixWare Desktop graphical login

       SYNOPSIS
             disable_glogin
             enable_glogin
             start_glogin

       DESCRIPTION
             enable_glogin, disable_glogin, and start_glogin are commands
             to administer and control the UnixWare Desktop graphical
             login.  The graphical login, using the xdm command, is enabled
             by default in UnixWare.

             enable_glogin enables the UnixWare Desktop graphical login by
             adding the file /etc/rc2.d/S69xdm to the /etc/rc2.d directory
             if the file has been removed.  The file is then used by rc2
             when bringing the system to a ready-to-use state,
             traditionally state 2, called the ``multi-user'' state [see
             rc2(1M)].  This command restores the use of graphical login,
             for the next time the system is booted, after it has
             previously been disabled using disable_glogin.

             disable_glogin disables the UnixWare Desktop graphical login
             by removing the file /etc/rc2.d/S69xdm from the /etc/rc2.d
             directory if the file exists.  Use this command if you do not
             want the graphical login to appear when you boot your system.

             start_glogin sets the appropriate runtime environment and
             starts the UnixWare Desktop graphical login. This can be used
             when the Desktop is not running and you want to start the
             graphical login process.  It does not enable graphical login
             for the next boot.

             The file S69xdm checks for the existence of the X server and
             the xdm command and executes xdm if both are found.
