sorted it out: I had an error in my /etc/netsvc.conf entry: changed it from: hosts = nis, files to : hosts = local, nis after this change local Hosts is used for name resolution at boot time.

It looks like the automatic mouts are perfomed before ypbind deamon is started. Thats why i entered these hosts in the local /etc/hosts File to be able to mount them at startup. But it still does not work Mark

I'm running AIX 4.3.3 ML 9, using NIS and Hosts file for name resolution, NO DNS. At boot Time the automatic NFS mounts are not performed. in /var/adm/ras/bootlog the following error is displayed: ****************** no stderr *********** Configuration time: 24 seconds Saving Base Customize...

Your'e right! I added the following line to /etc/netsvc.conf : hosts = nis, files after that the name resolution did also work with sendmail. Thanks for your help jaki

I once had this, when i used the wrong serial cable. as far as i know there are 2 kinds of terminal cables, on which is a nullmodem ( send and recieve pins are crossed ) and one which ist straight. maybe you can exchange the cable with one of the other RS6000, you know it is working. maybe...

Dear all, I try to forward all mails for root to our Lotus Notes box here. I run AIX 5.2 system without DNS, only NIS is used for name resolution. I now added my email adress to the .forward file in root's Homedir. then i added an entry mydomain.com to the local hosts file. with this...

thanks for your responses .... jaki

they're SCSI disks ... but i found that the ser.Nr. is on a small sticker on the head-side of the disks, so i can get the S/N with "lscfg -vl hdisk10" and then look for the disk with that S/N. jaki

hi @ll, is there a possibility to locate a failed Phisical Volume? one of my disks failed ( state missing in lsvg -p ) and i have a 3 shelfes full of disks ... and wonder if there is the possibility to locate the failed disk, that i can remove it? I have a F50 with 3 6Packs full of disks. Mark

I thought the Cisco DHCP Server would do that automaticly ... have you verified that it does not do ?

maybe the console Port speed is not set to 9600 on your router, i'm not realy sure, but there is a possibility to reset is to default ( which is 9600 ) maybe using a jumper on the board ... Try to find something like this in your users guide ... jaki

fmonteiro: Thanks ... that worked ! if i now request a DHCP address i get xx.xx.178.101 so the command to reserv a IP is : client-identifier xxxx.xxxx.xxxx.xx cu Mark

fmonteiro: writing the MAC in other syntax doesn't solve the Problem... ip dhcp pool 7e35kt8zj0rd host xx.xx.178.101 255.255.255.0 hardware-address 0008.0294.7c9b ieee802 ! euitmi02#sho ip dhcp bind Bindings from all pools not associated...

So as i understand from you comments it is not possible to reserve an IP address for a specified MAC address, only by excluding the IP from DHCP and make it static ? I dont want to make the IP static, because the machine is a laptop of a person who travels a lot to other company locations...

try "ls -tr" ( r for reverse order ) ;-)
