netstations on AIX433

[absi]

Dears
I have a customer with AIX421 installed and a lot of IBM netstations working with RS6000 server.Now they want to upgrade thier operating system to AIX433.
Problem is that AIX421 base CD has netstation software module available with it.
But AIX433 CD has no netstation software (netstation manager) in it.........on web sites there is only netstation software availiable for AIX430.
IBM has no knowledge about it and there is no way known where to order the netstation software for AIX433.
Can any body help me ...........does any one has the environment of running netstation on AIX433.

I worked on a site running IBM Net Station model 8361-110. The s/w version was V1.30. This s/w was obtained from IBM (after a bit of a struggle)but it worked well in our AIX 4.3.3 environment. Unfortunately it would take me time to get the CD but it was available from IBM.

Keep pushing IBM, they should have the software even if they no longer support it!

Thank God!
But the software version as i thinsk for AIX 430 not for 433......but as you are saying it appears that network station software is just only a middleware product independent of operating system level.
Anyhow one my last question.....is the netstation model also depends upon the netstation software.....i mean that if there is any other model will it work with netstation software version 130.
Any ideas!!!!!

You might have installation problems because of prereq's, but you won't have any problem with it working. It uses standard bootp, tftp, and nfs to do almost all of what it does and all these are really independent of the OS level.
