Which version of Visionfs are you trying to install? You should have at least version 3.0 (version 3.1 is the latest). After untarring the files you should go to SCOADMIN/Software Manager to do the installation or "custom" at the "#" prompt. If you are logged in as root...

How old is the computer you're installing the drive in? Did the motherboard detect the new drive? Are you sure of your Master/Slave settings on the IDE drive?. Are you certain the new drive is any good? Since you are not getting a boot prompt, the system is failing before or at the point it...

neos Does the directory windows exist under the mnt directory on the linux box? The system is telling you it cannot find the mount point for the windows drive. From root it should look like this "/mnt/windows". Thanks; Mike

If memory serves me, Colorado only made 2 releases of thier driver for Xenix. I tried to get them to work on a 3.2v4.2 system once and Unix would not load it. Another draw back is that they only worked with the Jumbo 150 and 250 drives. I have a copy of the driver in my dusty archive...

I would suggest loading VisionFS from SCO/Caldera on the SCO server. If you have it on the server already then it may not be running. If you are not sure whether or not it is loaded check your software manager (custom) on the SCO system, it will show you if it is loaded. If it is loaded; the...

Which type of Specialix product are you using? The 2 most popular are the RIO and SI. Both of these products come with configuration software for SCO systems. The command to start the software for the RIO is "config.rio" and the SI is "config.si" Both of these programs...

Don't do anything unless you have a known good full system backup first! Thanks; Mike

HP Netservers, definitely. I have installed a number of these over the last few years. Several were with 504. The only problem I have had was with a tape drive in one machine. Not to put down Compaqs, but I find them to be a little to proprietary for my tastes. I have one ML350 that is less...

Thanks Folks; It worked and it helped. You know the old saying "If you don't use it, You lose it." Guess that was true for me. Thanks again; Mike

For the life of me I cannot remember how to set this up. I have a client with 2 SCO 505 Enterprise systems connected to a KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) switch. It is difficult at times to remember which system you are working with. I need to put names for each system in the command line prompt...

I have had conditional luck with the IDE Travan drives such as the Seagate 8gig unit. I would discourage you from using any HP/Colorado IDE Tape drive. They are pure JUNK!! By "conditional luck" I mean these drives will work with TAR or CPIO but, I have found they do not usually play...

The system is transmitting the power failure message so the user's can log out before the system shuts down. Kinda' important if you want to ensure data integrity when you come back up. The command to expand a ".Z" file is this: uncompress filename.Z Remember this command is...

Yes it works. It is a free and worthwhile download

What kind of drive is in this machine? It sounds pretty old. If it is an IDE drive, try checking the drives setup in the CMOS to make sure it has not changed.

I have to agree with a couple of comments I have seen on how cumbersome Caldera has made things since aquiring SCO. This is especially true when it comes to technical issues. I did find a way to get to the SCO Technical Articles Center with relative ease. Below are the instructions to get...

I would take a closer look at the configuration of your fax manager on the 2000 system. If everything is working with the 95/98 PC's, it would indicate that the Visionfs is properly configured on the network.

Stan's right. If you want to use TCP/IP on this system, you will have to upgrade to and Enterprise system.

I recently ran into a very similar problem such as yours. Check these 2 items. 1. Make sure the host that the printer is connected to is defined in the /etc/hosts.lpd file 2. Consider loading SCO's 0ss497c patch. This patch addresses issues dealing with remote printing and printers that...

You can also try this. After the system is booted and you are at a "#" prompt type the following command: hwconfig |more This command will list all of the hardware found on the system at boot. I find it useful to put this information in a file for future reference. To do this you...

If these terminals are the ADDS4000 (beige colored boxes with an orange power button and green led on the right front of the box)go into the terminals setup by pressing <ctrl> + <print screen> and set your ports configuration to EIA/NONE (this one of the options) save it and exit. this should...
