I am trying to bring up the PC-Interface from Locus/ICS using RS-232
only and am not having much success.
1. The DOS installation seems to
be ok. I can run login.exe and log onto the Unix system however as
soon as I press F9 (to make the connection) the Unix Console responds
with:
Severe or Fatal error in PC-Interface
Fatal error in pcidossvr.232 4197:
Topserr=-1, errno=2 on attach to shared memory segment.
2. If I then run 'sharectl' as either a user or 'root' I get the error
message:
shareinit: Can't get shared memory key
3. And as is probably no suprise, if I run 'ipcs' it shows no shared memory
segments active.
4. My ICS Unix is V2.2, Unix PC-Interface Server is V2.8.6 and
the DOS PC-Interface client software is V3.0 (It would seem that
the version differences are the source of my problems but ICS
has assured me that it is not, though I am still awaiting a solution
from them.)
5. I have four pty gettys running but no other demon (another clue
perhaps?).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Harry Levinson
