I'm use Remote Desktop to connect and do maintenance on another system on the other side of the house (yes, I'm too freekin' lazy to walk over there!). The system I'm running RDC from has a UXGA (1600x1200) display. It has an SXVGA+ (1400x1050) dislpay, and I don't have that setting on the...

Stefan: Everything is set up as described Mike: That was my first though as well, but nothing else is broken on this server (telent, ftp, DNS, etc.). I even tried staring up in IPv4 only and got the same result. Any other ideas? There is little to go on Google-wise - Funky D

0513-086 The sshd Group is not on file. "startsrc -s sshd" works fine, it's just that the sshd dæmon dies after starting up with the "Invalid argument" shown above. Any ideas? - Funky D

Got me there. I would strongly suspect a network issue, but you say that rcp is working. Next step would be monitoring the RPC port (135) for traffic.

Maybe I have the format of /etc genericstable wrong... It's current contents are realuser@realhost : user-name-I-want-it-to-be@domain-I-want-it-to-be.com There isn't much to Google on for AIX here. Do I have the format right? - Funky D

5 MB is not a large file. Large files nowadays are on the order of GB. Since you indicate it is not a consistent file size that causes errors. It's not an NFS limit (which would be 2 or 4 GB anyway). What error message are you getting during the copy? - Funky D

How large are these files, and which NFS version are you using? - Funky D

I need to format outgoing e-mail messages (AIX 4.3.3, but also needs to be applicable to 5.x) so that they originate from an address that can be replied to (incoming sendmail is disabled). I set up an /etc/genericstable with the correct address, did a "makemap dbm /etc/genericstable <...

If you want to explicity enable auto-negotioation on the car you can use: >>> set ewa[#]_mode auto-negotiation

Try using sudo. It can create a "sudolog" of who invoked sudo to run a command and when. - Funky D

Secure shell should invoke editors just like any other shell. Any editor on your system should be usable within SSh, if not, then there's a problem. - Funky D

The easiest thing to do (assuming the disks are NOT managed by LSM) is to boot single-user, run "mount -u /" and "bcheckrc", put the 5.1B CD in the drive, then run "installupdate". As always, make sure you take a backup (or 2) first! - Funky D

&quot;verify&quot; is the correct utility to run with AdvFS. If you are looking to delete the file that lacks the directory entry, you can use &quot;verify -d [domain]&quot;. If it is the root_domain, you must also specify &quot;-r&quot;. HTH - Funky D

Is there a software driver that runs on the PC?
