Check pkginfo to see if you have FB, CDE, X code loaded on the local
machines but not the new remote one.  For example:  SUNWdfb, SUNWdtbas,
SUNWdtbax, SUNWdtcor, SUNWdtdmn, SUNWdtdte, SUNWdticn, SUNWdtwm
These may have many dependencies on the X subsystem packages: SUNWxw*
These are examples from my Solaris 8 system; YMMV

Subject: VNC as only display on Sol 2.6 for CDE login??

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong??? I've searched all the online
resources to no avail...

I have been using VNC for some time on my local LAN between my NT machine
and Solaris workstations.  I now also admin our company mail server which is
also a Solaris 2.6 box on the WAN.  It is a pain to do everything remotely
without a GUI. So, I installed VNC and config'd same as on local boxes for
dtlogin.  This server does NOT have a display adapter and was not previously
starting an Xserver.  When I boot the machine, these are the running root
processes:

After I attempt to connect to the VNC session this is appended to
"/var/dt/Xerrors":
