I had NFS working fine, but after I tried to mount from the client while the server was rebooting I have not been able to NFS mount either way. The error message is: mount: RPC: Unable to receive; errno = Connection Refused I have tried uninstalling (rpm -e) and reinstalling portmap and...

Thanks for the response rajeshrcmc! I don 't think the scsi ID matters. The id's are below. # lsdev -Cs scsi cd0 Available 10-60-00-1,0 16 Bit SCSI Multimedia CD-ROM Drive rmt0 Available 10-60-00-2,0 SCSI 4mm Tape Drive hdisk0 Available 10-60-00-4,0 16 Bit LVD SCSI Disk Drive Another...

I enter 'bootlist -m normal cd0' Then I run 'bootlist -om normal' It returns: cd0 But when I issue 'shutdown -Fr' it will not boot off of the CD. It works for rmt0 and hdisk0, and I can mount and 'ls' CD's so the drive is good. Updating the bootlist with 'diag' does the same thing. The...

The 'r' permission in the directory lets you 'ls' it. But the 'x' in the directory lets you 'cd' into it. In order to cat files, you have to have permission to &quot;be in&quot; that directory. <p>Doug Tyre<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a...

I saw something new in a new AIX image I received from IBM for a class. The entry free=true (or false) in /etc/filesystems. Does anyone know what that means. It is not in the redbook or web-based documentation. <p>Doug Tyre<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a...

Does anyone know what this device (rcm0)is. In the devices.cat catalog is is described as a &quot;Rendering Context Mqanager.&quot; I have never heard of such a device even did a search in the redbooks and found nothing. <p>Doug Tyre<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a...

I have the same problem again (two months later.) I don't think it has to do with 6.2. I cannot telnet to the loopback (127.0.0.1) or from any other host. I get a error message stating &quot;connection refused.&quot; I have added the approriate hosts to /etc/hosts.allow and verified that...

Also, If you want to clone the ENTIRE system (i.e. All VG's) It requires multiple steps. The previoulsly mentioned mksysb for rootvg and 'savevg' for the other VG's. A separate utility called sysback will handle it all for you at once. I sat in on a demo of version 5 and it is slick. You...

Yes, Mike is right, mirroring is done at the LV level and you can specify the target disk in SMIT when doing the mklvcopy. New with 4.3.2 (I think) is the mkvgcopy that allows mirroring an entire VG. You may want to check that out also. <p>Doug Tyre<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a...

I have a question from a student that I honestly do not know: In /etc/filesytems, why are double quotes used for some FS's vol attribute and not others? For example: /home: dev = /dev/hd1 vol = &quot;/home&quot; /usr: dev = /dev/hd2 vol...

I think I will take your advice about buying a video card.&nbsp;&nbsp;I have now officially tried everything.<br><br>Thank you for the help <p>Doug Tyre<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href=http://www.miami.edu/UMH/CDA/UMH_Main/1,1770,3005-1,00.html>NGJ Information Systems Institute (at UM)</a><br>

No matter what options I try in Xconfigurator, I end up with my X display about 20 times larger than it should be.&nbsp;&nbsp;It is so large that the bar at the bottom of GNOME takes up the bottom third of the screen.<br><br>I am installing Red Hat 6.2 on a gateway computer with a graphics card...

Sorry, my fault.&nbsp;&nbsp;It does work.<br><br>Thank you for the response however. <p>Doug Tyre<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href=http://www.miami.edu/UMH/CDA/UMH_Main/1,1770,3005-1,00.html>NGJ Information Systems Institute (at UM)</a><br>

Does anyone know why telnet works in 6.1, but not 6.2? <p>Doug Tyre<br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href=http://www.miami.edu/UMH/CDA/UMH_Main/1,1770,3005-1,00.html>NGJ Information Systems Institute (at UM)</a><br>
