Hello all, 

	I realize you've seen alot from me lately, but I've run into a serious
quandry about the next step to take.

	The first part is that I just finished "make World" on X11R5PPL9. After
getting "lex" fixed (STUPID */ ADDITION IN THE NCFORM FILE!!) it worked in
just under 2 1/2 hours.  In 15 minutes it was installed, but now.....

	HOW THE HECK DO I KNOW ITS CONFIGURED/COMPILED/WORKING CORRECTLY?

	The next part is that I just installed a demo version of a product
called XAPPEAL.  It took a little while to get it installed and configured,
but now......

	HOW THE HECK DO I KNOW ITS CONFIGURED/INSTALLED/WORKING CORRECTLY?

	The final part is I am a new X user.  I've never been exposed to it
before.  I follow what direction I can to start my server.....
(DISPLAY=graphics:0;export DISPLAY;xterm -ls -display graphics:0)&
but now......

	HOW THE HECK DO I KNOW IF I'M CONFIGURED/BORN/WORKING CORRECTLY?

	BTW: I'm also using SLIP, the Cywnr ETHERSLI driver, AND don't have
access to comp.windows.x!

					Scott

I looking at InfoExplorer under the 'Accounting Overview' it looks
like you have to run a command called 'acctmerge' to get the printer
accounting added to the daily reports.  Try looking at the man page
for that command.  I've never used it before.

You should be able set up a separate queue for each printer and then
for each queue specify a different accounting file name.

That depends upon what you mean by a "fix".  This is a warning, not
necessarily an error.  So the most likely situation is that nothing
need be done about it.  If you want to suppress such warnings, you
could use the ld option "-bh:4".

I have received and installed PTF U406316 from IBM which will supposedly fix
the problems we have had with the name daemon (/etc/named -> /usr/sbin/named).
I am currently running the IBM named on "ee" with a watchful eye and crossed
fingers.  So far it has managed a zone transfer without crashing ;-), but has
been running for only a few minutes.  Are there any other tests I can run
besides just sitting and waiting?  Anyone with suggestions please mail them
to me.

About two days ago I posted to this group asking about third-party disk drives.  Since then
I have located "ibminet.awdpa.ibm.com" (192.35.233.1).  This anonymous ftp site maintains
(in /pub/oemhw) a 200 page document containing information regarding third-party hardware

Subject: Re: origins of DCE rpc
Date: 18 Dec 92 10:18:33 GMT
Organization: Hewlett-Packard GmbH

DCE RPCs are originated from the Apollo NCS RPCs.

NCS = Network Computing System

I suggest you the following books:

NCS Tutorial  ISBN 0-13-617242-3 Prentice-Hall

From HP you can get:

Network Computing Architecture  P/N 010201-A01
NCS Ref. Manual                 P/N D-10200-C
Managing NCS software           P/N D-11895-C

This is all related with the "old" NCS; DCE "NCS"
has been modified and enhanced from HP and, I think,
also some parts from DEC...

Good luck..

Subject: Book review - Understanding (OSF) DCE
Keywords: DCE OSF
Date: 14 Dec 92 00:14:02 GMT
Followup-To: comp.unix.osf.misc
Organization: Mile-High Information Services, Inc.

I just finished a book entitled "Understanding DCE" by Ward Rosenberry, David 
Kenney and Gerry Fisher.  It's published by O'Reilly and Associate, who 
publish many excellent books on open systems topics.

Understanding DCE is aimed at someone who expects to have to deal with, in 
some fashion, the distributed communications environment from the Open 
Software Foundation (OSF).  DCE includes a distributed file system, time, 
security and naming services which are based on remote procedure calls (RPCs).
This book is a very good introduction into what's in OSF's DCE and how the 
pieces work and work together.

What's most impressive to me about the book is that you can actually read it 
without either falling asleep or losing interest and quitting.  This is 
important because DCE is what most of us are going to be copying with over 
time.  Digital, along with most other major vendors, is committed to using DCE 
for intersystem services, replacing Sun's Open Network Computing (ONC), which
includes the network file system (NFS) and Sun RPC's.  DCE is a more 
functional, more secure technology that is creeping into the world of open 
systems.  At the Fall '92 DECUS, Digital showed off DCE-based software running 
between VMS, OSF/1, MS-Windows and Windows/NT.  A DCE started kit for OSF/1 is 
shipping from DEC now.  DCE for MS-Windows is available from Gradient 
Technologies now as well.  DCE for VMS is expected to be available sometime in 
the first half of 1993.

If you are interested in learning about DCE and starting to evaluate how it 
will effect you, I highly recommend Understanding DCE.

Why do you care what is in the system header files?

... It seems to me that this action would automatically involve the 386bsd
users in the current USL/BSDI lawsuit -- Personally, I believe that USL will
stop at no end to ensure that only they ship anthing resembling a *NIX 
system.  As a result, they'd probably state that they probably would *NOT* want
the inclusion of 386bsd into the CDROM (and maybe linux as well).  I basically
dont trust USL at all. (personal opinion only -- please dont flame).

This is a segmentation violation.  It could mean a bug in the server
or a corrupted executable.  You can make certain that the server
executable is not corruped by matching the checksum listed in the
MANIFEST.core-server-1.1 file with that generated by 'cksum X386'.

The distributed server executable isn't striped, so you may be able to
get some information from the stack trace.  You can use gdb on the
core file generated by X386 to generate the backtrace.
