Thanks Inforeqd, hopefully it will help, just trying to round somebody up to get onsite. Cheers, Mark T.

Hi, I am trying to connect to a Dell R710 through a Cisco 2821 router (telnet <loopback IP> <tty port>). I've never used a Dell before (or Linux actually) and have previously only used this method to install Solaris onto Sun servers. Currently I have straight-though UTP cable from the port on...

Hi North, no there isn't I'm afraid, plus the reboot of the one local server did eventually get me access which it wouldn't have done with an ACL in the way. My current thinking is that there is some sort of stale session still in place from the old terminal server (say some sloppy techy...

Hi all, I am an administrator for forty-eight SOlaris servers scattered around the world, I have remote console connectivty via Cisco 2821 terminal servers. Recently all the devices were moved to new terminal servers but I can no longer get remote console connectivity to fourteen of them. Most...

Hi, I have an external disk array attached to my AIX5 server. The array has ten disks and two controllers (five disks per controller). I want to set up mirroring for one five disk VG, but obviously, I'd like to map the mirrors across the two controllers so one-half of the mirror is on...

Hi, I have an AIX 5.2 system with an attached SSA array, with two controlers (ssa0 & ssa1). I have two raid 10 arrays defined as hdisk2 and hdisk3: Components Primary Secondary Status hdisk2 good pdisk18...

Hi, sorry, traceroute is running on a sol8 machine, target is sol10. cheers, Mark T.

Sorry if this is something stupid, I am a Unix sysprog with only a vague understanding of networks. I have a traceroute, that after reacing it's destination just keeps on going: The target box has a hostname of OMR01, I have partially obscured the IP addresses: traceroute to omr01...

Hello, I hope somebody can point out the error of my ways. I am trying to do a simple counting program reads through a list of domains (stored in a flat file referenced as $list) copies relevant lines from a huge logfile ($inp) to a temporary file ($tmp), produces a unique list of these...

Hope somebody can help, it's Christmas and I'm all alone in the office and an Engineer has killed one of our production AIX servers (by removing the wrong disk from an SSA array). The Engineer physically re-added the disk and I have rebooted and can 'see' the disk, but the filesystems on it...

Thanks Jean Pierre, That works fine, I knew it would be comething simple like that. Cheers, Mark T.

Hopefully a simple and common problem; I need to move the contents of one string variable to another, but the string contains arithmetic symbols (generally minuses) and therefore Kornshell is trying to evaluate them as formulers. example script: #!/usr/bin/ksh let a=midland-bank.com echo $a...

Thank you all, especially Sbix for the shortest, neatest solution. Cheers, Mark T.

Hi, Again I must apologise for my inadequacies as a scripter, I need a simple script to select the last section of a variable. I know how to use awk print basically, but can't find how to select the last portion. Please see my cut-down script below; [COLOR=blue] #!/usr/bin/ksh...

Thanks Siberian, That helped a lot, the problem was my use of regular expressions, the input_log() showed me exactly where I was going wrong. Cheers, Mark T.

I've hit a brick wall again (but thanks for all the support). My simplified test script (using Korn shell on AIX) looks like this; [COLOR=green] #!/usr/bin/perl use Net::Telnet (); $t = new Net::Telnet (Timeout => 10, Prompt => '/[\$%#>] $/')...

Thanks Raenius, Your script was very useful, but... I still can't get a telnet session to start. If I try to telnet manually (ie, [COLOR=blue] telnet 195.183.191.230[COLOR=black] from the command line) I get connected immediately (sub-second), but when I try to run from a perl script I get the...

Thanks Siberian, I'll give it a shot. Cheers, Mark T.

Sorry, This really is a begging letter. I am very new to perl (though reasonably okay with shell scripting). I need a complete hand-holding script to telnet on port 25 to a specified IP address and measure the time before it issues the ehlo (and then quit) statements. I'm basically asking for...

Thank you both for your amazingly quick responses. I'll buy you both a pint the next time I see you :) Cheers, Mark T.
