After installing the 3002 patch and rebooting my machine, I noticed a rather bizarre error: Starting tcpip daemons: /etc/syslogd: ERROR: '57' getsockname, SRC not found, continuing without SRC support syslogd sendmail portmap inetd As a result, none of the above daemons started automatically. After narrowing everything down, I discovered that the 3001 and 3002 ps -e commands return slightly different things. 3001 version has five columns and 3002 has four columns. Thus, when /etc/rc.tcpip checks for the srcmstr running, the line should be changed from src_running=`ps -e | awk '$5 == "srcmstr" { print $1 }'` <version 3001> to src_running=`ps -e | awk '$4 == "srcmstr" { print $1 }'` <version 3002> I was rather perplexed, because although there was mention in the update documentation that /etc/rc.tcpip *was* changed in the 3002 release, a restore -T on the update bosnet.tcpip.obj file did not confirm that /etc/rc.tcpip was one of the changed files. Additionally, the machines that were updated did not show a change in this file. I did a dd from the stacked tape to get these files onto my server so I could apply the patch across the network. Am I missing something here, or have other persons had this problem when moving to 3002? -Wendy wross@caen.engin.umich.edu <insert amusing quip here>

I just installed release 3002 from 1/4" tape, and my rc.tcpip was slightly different than yours. This release also told me that /etc/rc.tcpip would be changed. My version is: src_running=`ps -e | awk '$NF == "srcmstr" {print $1; exit} '` Perhaps your tape is a 'early version' of release 3002?

Another interesting trick with patch tape 3002. After I installed it and uncommented the routed line in the new rc.tcpip, I discovered that I could telnet out and rlogin out of the RS/6000, and I could rlogin from other machines to the RS/6000. However, I could not telnet into the RS/6000 from any other machines on the network. Any help would be appreciated. You may send messages to me at: rs0thp@rohvm1 bitnet or rs0thp@rohmhaas.com internet Thanks again for any help.

From article <1990Dec4.031214.11374@engin.umich.edu>, by wross@engin.umich.edu (Wendy Ross):
- ps -e commands return slightly different things. 3001 version has
- five columns and 3002 has four columns. Thus, when /etc/rc.tcpip
- checks for the srcmstr running, the line should be changed from
- src_running=`ps -e | awk '$5 == "srcmstr" { print $1 }'` <version 3001>
- to
- src_running=`ps -e | awk '$4 == "srcmstr" { print $1 }'` <version 3002>
Hmmmm - I just applied 3002 yesterday. As indicated, ps returns four
columns instead of five. In my case, rc.tcpip WAS updated to:
src_running=`ps -e | awk '$NF == "srcmstr" { print $1; exit }'`
and the 'routed' uncommenting problem mentioned in another posting did
not occur. I updated from tape, not from diskettes. On the other hand,
ioctl and fcntl seem to be severely broken now. Anyone see some stupid
mistake in the following code?
int tty;
tty = open( "/dev/tty1" , 0);
printf("tty is %d\n",tty);
if (ioctl(tty, TIOCEXCL, NULL) < 0) {
perror("ioctl TIOCEXCL");
exit(1);
}
Fairly simple and a really bad thing to break. The fcntl error is buried
in some xntp code ( ntp_io.c if you're interested ).
