Check the back of your monitor to make sure that the RED (the 'R'
in RGB) BNC connector is snug and secure.  If it is then you may
have a problem with the red gun on your monitor.

In the AIX 3.1.5 /usr/lib/sendmail.cf, I made the following change
in the line identified as "# format of a total name":

Old line:

Dq$g$?x ($x)$.

New line:

Dq$?x$x <$f@$j>$|$f@$j$.

This gives you the format you desire.

I don't know why it should have a dot after the "dk", though, unless
there is an error in the way the domain name was specified in the
"D" lines in the sendmail.cf file.  (Is it /usr/lib/sendmail.cf or
/etc/sendmail.cf in AIX 3.2?)

Check the "DD", "DE", etc. lines in your sendmail configuration file.
Then correct them, including the above change, and follow the AIX
procedures to stop and restart the sendmail daemon.

Hope this helps.

Hi AIX-gurus,
I have got a problem since I installed AIX 3.2.2 (up from 3.2.0) on several
RS-6K's:
When I try to login from an X-Station, I get the message 'you must exec login
from the lowest shell...' although I always thought the window you get for logg
ing in IS the lowest shell. The problem occurs only if you log in to the host
which is actually the server for a particular X-Station. If you log in to a
remote host, the login script (usr/lpp/x_st_mgr/bin/login) automagically does a
rlogin, and everything works fine. Anybody hava a hint ?

   I guess the real question I have is how to restore the
backup if you have corrupted the system software and no
longer have access to restore or rrestore. The only way
I have seen is through a menu that comes up after using
the bosboot diskettes. It never gives the opportunity to
specify a remote address to reload from.

The unix password file scheme is all text-file based, so any program you
already have to process registration data could be extended to write password
file entries.  (The Prime SAD is a binary file; no such luck there, although
the structures are available)

Unix password file, as implemented under AIX (/etc/passwd)

   username:!:userid:groupid:comment field:origin directory:login shell

Under AIX there is a "shadow" password file (/etc/security/passwd) which
contains stanzas like:

   username:
            password = encrypted password
            lastupdate = decimal number-result of calling time()
            flags = ADMCHG
   <blank line>

The password can be generated by calling crypt().

It should be relatively easy to write entries like this into two files, then
edit them into place with vi.  You could make the program directly manipulate
the passwd files, and use the comment field to contain expiry information
(but disable the chfn command).  Only root and members of the security group
have access to the /etc/security directory.

Another option is to look into the mkuser, chuser, and pwdadm commands and
write a script based on them.  This option will probably be slower.  Also,
AIX will let you specify an expiration date for an account, which it will
enforce.

We just had 3 RS6000 boxes installed (today!) for the same reason.

I, too, would like a copy of any scripts that are available.  Currently,
on our VM system, the whole process of userid maintenance is automated.
The registration process (on MVS) creates an output file that gets sent
to the VM System.  The output file is a standard format (eg. column one
is the code for the action to be taken (Add/Delete/etc.), column two is
the userid, etc.) file.

A frontend to DIRMAINT takes this output file, converts it into the needed
DIRMAINT commands, monitors their execution, and then produces a report
of any errors/exceptions that occurred.  Several thousand userids are
processed this way at the start/end of each term requiring only a small
amount of people time.  I would like the same setup on our RS6000 system.

On my sendmail.cf there was a item for a relay host.  I use that for
bitnet mail, but I see no reason why it would not also work for uucp
if your relay could handle it.

You can search for  BITNET  in the file and see if you have that, or
look for relay.

You will need to use curses uless you want to buy some third party software
like DMS. Unfortunately curses is aptly named since that is what folks will
hear from your office as you try to program with it.

Subject:      Looking for DOS uuencode/decode.

Dear AIX-Listeners,

I am evaluating popmail on PCs.  We need to transfer Word for Windows
(WW) documents via Internet. As WW files are binary file, do you know
whether there are PC version of uuencode/uudecode so we can encode WW
files before sending them to the server and decode them at the destination.

Thanks.

Subject:      sendmail & uppercase user-id

i have following problem:
a mail coming from VAX via SMTP cannot be received by sendmail.
the reaseon is - VAX unless addressing MX%"user@host.domain",
if putting the address into upper case like: USER@HOST.DOMAIN.
HOST.DOMAIN is not a problem, but sendmail refuses to accpet mail
to USER with error like user not known. when i put
in /usr/lib/aliases USER:user it works fine, but i don't want
to do it for every user. should i use some option inside sendmail.cf?
or should i specify some option in mailer's declarartion in sendmail.cf?
(sendmail i am using is the one that comes with AIX 3.1.5, but
i modified sendmail.cf to suit my environment)

Please answer directly to me, as i am temporaly cut off from
mail from BitNet and i am not receiving mailing from this list.

Jacek

Subject:      Getting sendmail.cf right

Hi,
This is my first post to this list, so I hope the subject is right.

We have a problem with our sendmail configuration on our IBM RS/6000
under AIX 3.2. When we send mail our "From:" line looks like, e.g.

From: hdj@dfm.dth.dk. (Hans D. Jensen)

instead of the more common(?)

From: Hans D. Jensen <hdj@dfm.dth.dk>

One problem the first creates is that some list processors and other
mailers choke on that final period in the user-node name. Can anybody
please tell me the appropriate change I should make in the sendmail.cf
or whereever to get a "standard" mail header. We have tried getting
from our local IBM rep, and played around ourselves, but it doesn't
help. (Anybody have the same problem?)
