    difference on sendmail and mailx commands

    mailx is on both Solaris and HP-UX and allows you to put a Subject from the command line, so I put this one in scripts. elm has a better user interface so I use this to read mail on HP-UX servers. sendmail should not be used directly. If you do a man sendmail it will tell you this as well. Only...

    SSH Install and Config Cookbook - ssh with no password

    Caveat: This may not be the absolute most secure method, but it works well when all boxes are behind the same firewall. Would not suggest the empty passphrase on boxes exposed directly to the internet. Install ssh software on your server: [root@smallbox] / > swinstall -s...

    possible Informix I/O performance?

    Can you send the output of onstat -g iov That way we can know if you are running async I/O or not. If not, you probably need more AIOVP's Is there a /dev/async on the box or Sun's equivalent? Are you using raw devices? or filesystem? for your dbspaces?

    Is there any way to create a (image

    I was looking into the same thing last week. We are an HP shop, but ordered a Solaris box because some app would only run on Solaris. Anyway, there is not anything from Sun that gives the make_recovery functionality that HP has or mksysb that AIX has. What I did find however, is a tool called...

    4GL Core Dump on execution

    Thanks!! But, the source is copyrighted and proprietary and all that stuff. I am thinking about opening a case with IBM/Informix and sending them the core file and letting them analyze it. Ever had any luck with that? I also have a newer version of the 4GL compiler but have not hade time to...

    4GL Core Dump on execution

    I am running on HP-UX 11.0 64-bit. The database is 9.21.FC5. I have a 4gl program that compiles and runs fine when using 4GL version 7.20.HE1 - 32-bit version. When compiling the same source code with 7.30.FC4 - the 64-bit version - I get an instant core dump when executing the compiled program...

    C Compiler for HP-UX???

    The best one is the ANSI C compiler HP sells. Even the PERL compiling instructions suggest not to use GCC. I think HP sells it for $1500~$2000

    GZIP compatibility issues

    I have no problem using gzip with winzip if I ftp the files in binary mode to/from the Windows box. My guess is that the mail program or probably Exchange is sticking unwanted characters in the file. Are you sending as an attachment or the body of the message? I did not see how to include a file...

    HP-UX 11 patch killed DynaLoader

    I applied patch PHCO_24148 to my N box and any dynamic loads in perl ceased to work. >:-< Removed patch - worked again. Contacted HP and they instructed me to remove -lc from the makefiles and rebuild. Works like a champ again! :-) Kirk

    High Level DBA Suport for IDS 7.24

    Sorry this is so late in replying. I have just recently started checking out tek-tips. I know some ex-Informix techies and such that have this company. http://www.udtcorp.com I don't work for the company and have not used their services, but they were quite competent when I dealt with them at...

    Our ODBC link locks up regularly - WHY ?

    What version of the ODBC driver are you running? It seems that we had problems with ODBC until we got to the Informix 3.3 ODBC Driver and higher. This came with IDS 7.3 or 9.21 but is probably available as a newer SDK client install
