    How to delay power switch on ML350?

    The official answer from HP/Compaq: "No delay is available for the power switch" :-(

    How to delay power switch on ML350?

    Is it possible to change the behaviour of the on/off power switch on a ML350 to delay. Currently, if someone even brushes up against the button, the power immediately turns on/off. I'm used to server power switches (Compaq Proliant 7000, Dell 6600) requiring to be held down for a few seconds to...

    grep fails to find ~, but finds "~", why?

    Annihilannic, That's the answer! The fax interface script must have started running under ksh after running hpnpcfg as root under ksh. Hpnpcfg restarts lp services to activate the new interface. The new printer was the first printer added through hpnpcfg since the upgrade in January. I had...

    grep fails to find ~, but finds "~", why?

    I left out one other piece of information: Last May we were running on SCO OpenServer 5.0.5. This January, we upgraded to 5.0.6. On a test server running 5.0.5. I confirmed that grep finds the tilde without the quotes, but on our 5.0.6 server grep does not find the tilde without the quotes...

    grep fails to find ~, but finds "~", why?

    SCO OpenServer 5.0.6 We have been running a script within a printer interface for faxing for since last May. Here's the original line from the script: grep -v ~ $FILES >> /tmp/$FILE.bat This line strips out all the lines containing tilde, ~. After deleting and adding another printer...

    Sharing MSDOS PC printers

    I have a perspective client who has 4 MSDOS PCs (no harddrive) with 2 HPLaserJet 8000s hooked up to each. He currently uses SneakerNet. His question to me is can he network the MSDOS PCs and avoid the costs of a jet direct card for each printer? Any ideas? I am quoting him a linux...

    Need syntax for using remote tape drive

    I'm assuming that the command below is the starting point. This command issued from the secondary server will restore the target directory from the tape device to the primary server. cd / rmcd primary_server "cpio -ivcdumC20480 -I/dev/rStp0 \"target_directory/*\" " How do I...

    Need syntax for using remote tape drive

    I have two SCO Unix 5.0.5 servers. Only one has a tape drive. After making a backup using cpio of the server with the tape drive, I would like to restore selected directories to the 2nd server (overwrite same directory structure).

    Copying large files between SCO servers

    Ok, here are my attempts and the results: 1) Tried cp with the main server mounted using NFS on the backup server => stalls - no error 2) Tried rcp to copy files from main to backup => stalls - no error 3) Tried rcmd main "cd /;find . -local -print | cpio -ovcC32768" > localfile =>...

    Copying large files between SCO servers

    Using the tape drive would defeat the dual purpose of copying the files. I also wanted to have a secondary backup of the main server to the test server to cover the weekend and holidays so an employee doesn't have to come in to the office and change tapes. I am curious however, I only have a...

    Copying large files between SCO servers

    I have two SCO 5.0.5 servers. One is up 24-7 and the other is for testing. I want to copy selected directories from the main server to the test server. I mounted the seleced directories on the test server using NFS. Then, I tried to use cp /mnt/main/dir1/* /dir1, but the command stalls (ps -elf...

    Delay on Login

    We had a similar problem. Our delay lasted approximately 30 seconds. Check /etc/auth/system for a file named ttys-t. If it's there, this file can be deleted and the system login will return to normal. SCO denied this was a problem for quite a while, but they have since released a patch...

    Launching DOS batch file

    I have a client who would like to launch a DOS batch file remotely from SCO Unix server every night via cron. The DOS batch file could be on any one of the many Windows platforms (9x, ME, NT, 2K, XP) and these remote PCs are already connected to the Unix server using Samba over a Frame Relay...
