One of the users on my network has moved to another machine. The
name of his old machine was happy, so his calendar info was in
happy:/usr/spool/calendar/callog.<username>. He has moved to a
new machine called sleepy, and I am trying to rcp this file from
his old machine into /usr/spool/calendar on his new to retain all
of his calendar appointments. When I call up his calendar on the
new machine it keeps coming up blank. Is there more to it than
just copying over this file? Has anyone come up with a better way
of accessing this information? It's kind of a pain always having to
login to the same machine to check your own calendar.
Thanks.

You need to make sure that the permisssions on /usr/spool/calendar are drwxrwsrwt (1777 I think), and that both the owner and the group are daemon. Then, you need to restart rpc.cmsd. I have had problems where this would not work, but after setting it up correctly, and rebooting the machine, all is well. > > Thanks. > -- > Don Cox > Phone (716) 253-7121 KMX (716) 253-7998 > INTERNET dcox@ssd.kodak.com > When an eel bites your leg, and the pain makes you beg, that's a moray! -- --- Greg Pasquariello Unify Corporation grp@Unify.Com

System: SunOS 4.1.1 on a SparcStation 2 with X11R4
Problem: Can't get CM to work properly. First it complains about
a missing font, and then all kinds of error messages
are generated when I view by the month. Here are the error
codes generated:
-jc- [raven: /home/local/X11R4/Sun4/lib/fonts] % cm &
[2] 19195
-jc- [raven: /home/local/X11R4/Sun4/lib/fonts] % XView warning: Cannot load fon
t '-b&h-lucida-medium-r-normal-sans-*-90-*-*-*-*-*-*' (Font package)
XView warning: Cannot load font '-b&h-lucida-bold-r-normal-sans-*-90-*-*-*-*-*-*

XView warning: invalid object (not a pointer), xv_get
XView warning: invalid object (not a pointer), xv_get
XView warning: invalid object (not a pointer), xv_get
[..Lots of the Xview warnings...]
So, I thought that perhaps the font path was a problem. I tried
doing a 'xset fp+ /usr/openwin/lib/fonts' but I got the following
error:
-jc- [pitch: /usr/openwin/lib/fonts] % xset fp+ /usr/openwin/lib/fonts/
X Error: BadValue
Request Major code 51 ()
Request Minor code 0
ResourceID 0x3
Error Serial #4
Current Serial #6
Could someone please explain to me what is going on? I work
on another machine which is very similiar to this and I have
no such problems.
Thank you for your time.
