    How to set dial-in a/c's idle time?

    you could write a script that runs out fo cron, that ran /usr/bin/w every so often, and look at the user and idle fields. Then just kill off the user that was idle too long. crowe

    V880 SMC Disk Error - héeéeéelp

    metatool, in my experiences, has been flakey at best. If you have ever contacted Sun support about metatool, they groan in the background. (they seem to hate it). I would recomment using/learning the command line stuff if you want to use DiskSuite. Crowe

    Solaris upgrade with Veritas filesystem

    I would start by checking how many disks are REALLY in the system. (open the door on the 450). I dont think a 450 supports 23 disks, although it does support quite a few. It could be that these are dangling disk devices from previous disks. Once the number of disks is established, you will want...

    Server drops to OK prompt everynight?

    Are there any serial connections to the server? It almost sounds like someone (or something) is sending a break sequence, causing the system to drop down to the ok prompt. crowe

    Have you got time?

    write your script with functions, when you call your functions at the bottom, stick the command 'timex' in front of the function. Also, call your script with 'timex' in front. The value of "real" is what your looking for. crowe

    A root script that others can run

    I would agree with alexhu, sudo is an easy and highly configurable solution to this problem. crowe

    /etc/lp/interfaces/lpxx[97]: test: Specify a parameter

    /etc/lp/interfaces/lpxx is probably a script that parses the printer commands and options/switches. There is some type of test statement that the script is unhappy with on line 97. Take a look at the script and see what is going on around line 97. crowe

    transparent / pass-through printing

    looks like you need to pass your script a filename. So if your script is called passthrough.sh, here woul be the syntax. # ./passthrough.sh /etc/hosts this should print the /etc/hosts file to the printer port on the terminal you execute this from. crowe

    About /etc/securetty

    the purpose of the /etc/securetty file is to specify where root can log in. Many will put "console" in there, so that root can only log in via the console. However this does not stop anyone from su'ing to root. For example, if /etc/securetty has console in it, you could not telnet to...

    Tried to create a huge volume

    It is a filesystem limitation. Which filesystem are you using (HFS, JFS, VxFS)? I believe that VxFS has a 1TB filesystem limitation. Also, there is probably some patches that might address this, so you might want to check out HP's site to see about that. crowe

    Configuring Disks for RAID

    more than likely(standard practice), 2 of the 5 disks should be set aside for the "OS" drives. these should both be placed in vg00. One should be mirrored to the other (RAID1) and both enabled to boot off of. that leaves you with 3 drives, not really enough to make a huge...

    Root access to NON-administrators

    I think they (storage admins) should be able to identify which commands they need to run "as root". There should not be a whole lot of show stoppers to accomplish what they need to do. Each command can be outlined in the sudoers file. crowe
