    AIX and Windows Share

    You can check out NFS, it doesn't come with the base Windows, and I believe is a purchase addin item from Microsoft. WRQ Reflection X is another package that has NFS support in it for windows, but again it is a purchase item. Kirk

    Password prompt

    Yes you can change the prompt to just "Password" as of 5.2. Here is a snippet I got from somewhere. I think off the ibm web site. The following example shows the result of changing the system-wide password prompt to Password:. # chsec -f /etc/security/login.cfg -s default -a...

    HACMP & /home

    What we did was to leave /home on local drives and use unison to sync the directories between the systems. (we don't use the failover box for test though) You might be able to create test and prod directories in the programmers home directories so they could keep test and production seperate...

    As rod indicated you need to update your bos.rte.install. Here is the text from the IBM site. oslevel -r Shows what maintenance level the system is at. Must have bos.rte.install 4.3.3.50 or later installed for this flag. Good Luck. Kirk

    FTP Connnection problem

    When you state the the TCP server is started on the iSeries are you refering to the *FTP server or TCP/IP? The command to start TCP is "strtcp" while "strtcpsvr *ftp" will start the ftp server. You can check if the ftp server is running on the iSeries by using the command...

    DISK SPACE

    You can use this command to see the available free space. lspv hdisk2 (of course put in the disk of choice) Should print out something similar to this. It shows the size of PP (Physical Partition) and the number of Free PPs. Just multiply and get free space. PHYSICAL VOLUME: hdisk2...

    Re: mksysb failed

    Hi, " The tape driver can take 20/40gb tape and the one I inserted is 5gb so I wonder if that is the problem? " I am assuming that the tape drive is the 20/40 drive. If it is and you are using a 5 gig tape your backups will not work correctly. The 5gb tapes and the 20/40 gig tapes...

    Sendmail mail error when Exchange server is down

    If you mean, are the DNS and exchange server on the same box? The answer is no. The DNS servers are separate systems from our mail servers. And if I ping company.org it successfully pings the name server and if I ping the mail server while the mail server is down it does return the correct ip...
