The original question was:

Is there anyway to start CDE environment, without using the loggin
screen ?
I mean, can I start it once logged in to the system console using
commands with a non root user?

The suggestions that did work were:

1- xinit /usr/dt/bin/Xsession

2- setenv XINITRC /usr/dt/bin/Xsession
/usr/openwin/bin/openwin

The rest of the suggestions received:

3- /etc/rc2.d/S99dtlogin start

4- /etc/init.d/dtlogin start

5- /usr/dt/bin/dtlogin -daemon

This suggestions start the login screen, which was not what I needed.
Also, they have to be run by root.
Thet can not be run by a regular user.
