Find out what shell you are running by typing echo $SHELL. Your shell will be either tcsh or bash.
ex:
$ echo $SHELL /bin/bash
I am running bash.
If you are using tcsh, type this commend to enter the bash shell before proceeding:
$ bash
If you are using bash, type this command:
$ source /afs/slac/g/lcls/tools/script/ENVS.bash
And start up the lcls home screen by typing:
$ lclshome
If you cannot bring up the lclshome, from a SecureCRT window, double check the Xll forward has been set. See Step 4.1 above.
If you still cann't bring up lclshome, verify that you have X-Win32 running. You should see an X icon on the menu bar. If the X-Win32 icon isn't there, then start X-Win32 and try to bring up lclshome again.
