    Issue halt remotely

    My problem is that I need a script or a program to do this. (Login, halt, logout). Do you think writing a C program using rcmd will work?

    Issue halt remotely

    It's actually not a diskless X-station. It boots from a floppy disk and mounts the box with the disk. Issuing a halt on the diskless box only shuts down that box. Any other ideas?

    Issue halt remotely

    Hi, I have a GUI running on a diskless Linux machine that boots off of another. The GUI has a button that a user can press to shutdown the entire system. In other words, I need to issue a halt command to the box with the disk across the network. Any ideas on how to do this? Thanks,

    remote desktop program for windows->linux

    I have a question to add to this... What if I want to use an actual hand held device (PDA, remote, etc) only to display and interact with a GUI running from my Linux server? I want to be able to interact with that GUI using a touch pad of some sort. Any ideas? Thanks, Laura

    Create bootable CD-RW for AIX

    Well, the CD burner we have is on a PC, not on the AIX. I was wondering if you could somehow make an image with mksysb and put it on a CD some other way.

    Hello... I am not a sys admin, but we don't have one right now and we are having problems with our new disk. We used to have a 4gB SCSI disk. We just upgraded to a third party 18gB SCSI-2. Everything seemed to be going fine until we started copying a large file system to the new disk...

    Slow boot -- Disk error

    The error that happens when it is slow is A668F553 (Disk Operation Error). I've checked all the network configurations and they are the same as they have always been, so they should be right. The original screen where the hang begins looks like...

    Slow boot -- Disk error

    It is AIX 4.1.5 with vxWorks. I'm not really sure what you mean by a RAID. It has one hard disk and is nfs mounted to our solaris machine. The hard disk is really old (SCSI-I), about 3 GB I think. I have tried the same thing on another disk of the same sort though, so I am pretty sure it...

    Slow boot -- Disk error

    Hello everyone... I am by no means an AIX sys admin but have been trying to fulfill the duties since we no longer have one... Our system sort of crashed a few weeks ago. Ever since then it boots VERY SLOW. I would say it takes 45 mintues to an hour to get to a login prompt. I have tried...
