Hello out there, My setup is: ISC 2.2 Compaq 386/33,Adaptec 1542A,3 660 MB SCSI DISKS(I forget which brand),exabyte 8mm tape drive,Orchid prodesigner w/512, WD8003. I have a few questions and any help would be apreciated: 1) I am attempting to set up PC-interface on some of my PC's so that it can use some of my unix machines vast amount of disk space. I've installed the DOS Bridge module under MS-DOS 4.01 and Compaq DOS 3.31. Under 4.01 if I install the bridge onto my hard drive, the system hangs after the pciinit -i<ipaddress> -x13 -e, command. If I install onto a bootable floppy the system boots and when I go into login I can see the server machine listed but I keep getting login incorrect. Under the Compaq DOS in login I get "Selected host not available". Is there anyone out there who has gotten this to work? All of this is over ethernet lines. I think there is probably something that I'm not doing on the server machine but what. 2) I'm attempting the set up system activity reporting, with the following commands: su sys -c "/usr/lib/sa/sadc /usr/adm/sa/sa'date +%d'" in /etc/init.d/perf and 5 18 * * 1-5 /usr/lib/sa/sa2 -s 8:00 -e 18:01 -i 1200 -A in crontabs/sys these commands I expect to create a daily file in /usr/adm/sa which I could then read with sar -A -f fn. ALL that I get in the /usr/adm/sa file is headings or nothing. 3) Is there anyone out there using Informix on a ISC or other PC UNIX platform? I'm having a few problems and would like to correspond with you. From the help that we've been able to get from informix there aren't many folks with Informix on these machines. -- "In this world you must be OH so smart or OH so pleasant...
