Network Station - MWM loading error message

Applicable to: World-Wide

SYMPTOM:
After logging in on the Network Station, a small box titled "mwm" with the text "loading error" appears in the upper left hand corner of the desktop environment. The buttons on the task bar include: log out, hide, move and lock .

SOLUTION:
If the boot server cannot resolve the hostname, and the IP address of the Network Station, an error will occur after logging in. Adding the name entry either locally to /etc/hosts, or having the entry added to the DNS server will solve the problem immediately.
