    USB REV drive for the backup

    We use microlite backup edge, they support rev drives on sco, I have only tried ide and scsi rev drives on 5.0.6 they are working perfectly, you might download the 90 day demo and give it a try. Or just drop their support an email to see if they think it will work. It is a solid product we...

    sending text through lp on SCO

    I have not used a zebranet print server in quite a while but I do remember having to use a specific remote queue name for the printer. I would go in and manually change the rp= flag in /etc/printcap to "text" or "pcl" based on what you are sending to it, I would guess "text" in your case. You...

    Logins are not clearing when users log out

    Hi, I have a customer running 5.0.5m. They log into the system to run our app which is being exec'd at the end of the users .profile. When they log out of our application at the end of the day the system is still showing them logged in. Our app does not allow concurrent logins so when they try...

    Setting up DNS on a SCO Server

    I usally just make the same entries that motoslide suggested, I would add to his suggestion, if you are using hostresorder local bind and don't have dns setup locally that you might want to make entries for your lan nodes in /etc/hosts otherwise you may have major delays with ftp and telnet...

    user logins hanging

    I have one customer having an ongoing problem with users not being logged out when they are done with our application. Their profiles are set to exec our app so they have no shell access, exiting the program should drop their telnet session, which it is doing. If you execute who it still shows...

    cu not dialing 9600 baud systems

    Well we have pretty much just given up on this, we have tried every suggestion here as well as other things we have thought of and nothing seems to work other than a reboot of the machine. After the reboot all the modems work perfectly for a while then start failing again. I would like to try...

    cu not dialing 9600 baud systems

    Yes this has been done to every modem, I have restrapped and replaced all cables and db25->rj45 adapters. The modems were working all morning, I can pinpoint when they all stopped working again to when someone tried to access a particular system, the modem on the other end picked up started to...

    We are still having problems with certain modems, timing out dialing into some systems, but not others, the modems I replaced were replaced with the same models we have used for years: multitech: MT1932ZDX, MT2834ZDX we have always used the usrobotics dialers with these modems and have never had...

    cu not dialing 9600 baud systems

    I took your suggestion and changed all of the devices and then updated Systems, still the problem persists. It was a good suggestion, but the devices file has been the same for 5 years with no problems. We have all of our communication vendors coming in tomorrow to troubleshoot the lines on...

    cu not dialing 9600 baud systems

    I have directly connected to all seven modems and restrapped them with the same command set we have been using for years. They all tested ok (we use atl5l6l7 to see the setups) The example ACU I posted was just the first ACU there are six more blocks for each of the remaining modems on...

    cu not dialing 9600 baud systems

    Hi, I have tried hayes2400 with the same results, also I looked at gettydefs as well but bening that I have tried moving all of the modems to another server running 5.0.6 with a totally different gettydefs file with the same result. Just for good measure I restored gettydefs from a year ago...
