Speaking of which, can you point me to where can I find configuration info on Names Server provided by the Oracle7.3.
We would like to move some Db's to other servers but can't find the information on how to reconfigure oracle name server.
Thanks, ~jdk

Thanks Morsing,
I've been studying up on Linux. I do hp-ux at present, but I think that's about to change.
I figure a lot of the "particulars" will fall out when I get an install of linux going.
Thanks again!

Having not installed linux before, can someone point me to where I might find out about;
What are the default device names for the logical partitions? hda1-5? Which is the first logical partition? hda5 ?
What are sda's ?
Thanks!

Although I believe you could go the suid route, I would suggest using "Restricted SAM".
Check out man sam look toward the bottom for "Restricted SAM".
ps: my group setting on lpsched is bin (10.20)

I did something similar for batch testing purposes.
(Our prod batch runs via root cron)
As long as the new "newuser" UID (0) is password protected and the script cannot be modified/replaced by anyone other than those intended, it sounds safe to me!

Dang, it's an hp-ux command "install special files"....
I'm not sure, but they might get recreated at boot.
You could make a backup copy and see if a boot recreates.

A colleague offers;
This might be due to the "corrupted" telnet device files. Try to recreated them, see if it helps ..
# cd /
# rm /dev/pty/*
# rm /dev/pts/*
# insf -e
# cd /dev
# insf -d telm
# insf -d tels

Hi mgrun,
Are you attempting to telnet to red on port 13782?
Try using the command "telnet red" or "telnet red 23"
OR "telnet red.domainname" "telnet red.domainname 23".

Soma, another option is to use SUDO.
SUDO is a root controlled program that can do wonderful things with euid/suid etc.
I was a bit aprehensive until I tried it, now I don't know how I did without it!
If you have trouble grasping the man pages, be sure to look at the sample.sudoers file for help...
Hi BGreen,
In hp-ux, you could use "fuser -cu /dir".
BTW- I agree with Morsing, lsof is extreeemly handy tool for sure!

Try taking out the "v" verbose.
i.e.
tar -cf /dev/rmt/0m /usr /opt /db2 1>/dev/null 2>/tmp/tar.err
The "2" or "stdout" is listing all files/block sizes you are tar'ing.

Hi Ed,
For my money it would have to be hp-ux 10.x now 11.x.
It is a proven OS, can be hardended, and there is tons of support, i.e. this forum.
Unix in general is NOT virus prone, primarily due to a READ-ONLY kernel lock (windows kernel is dynamicly active while open, allowing writes), plus the...
Try to find a HP-UX "System Administration Tasks" book.
It should be with your other hp-ux manuals.
In that book, ther should be booting instructions.
From my fragmented 7.x-9.x memory;
There hopefully is a backup kernel still in place.
@ ISL type " hpux /hp-ux.BCKUP " or...
Did you add the "default" gateway?
i.e. /etc/route add default $hostip
Also is the lan0 route in?
Destination Gateway Flags Refs Use Interface Pmtu PmtuTime

I just happen to have a few links handy!
The first one is excellent for beginners.
