Hello there,
we are running a SPARCstation 10 Model 20 with SUNOS 4.1.3
I am looking for a modified version of inetd that will log
ALL requests via syslog. This has been implemented on Convex machines, for
example:
Dec 14 17:53:04 sfb256 inetd[24006]: Req: login From: 131.220.223.205 
Dec 14 17:56:35 sfb256 inetd[24006]: Req: finger From: 131.220.223.1 
Dec 14 18:01:03 sfb256 inetd[24006]: Req: shell From: 131.220.223.12 
Dec 14 18:11:38 sfb256 inetd[24006]: Req: telnet From: 131.220.132.2 

Is such a modified inetd available, either pd or commercial ?
Thanks a lot,

I have some questions with regards to the different Xylogics SMD controllers
which can be used in Sun 2 (Multibus) systems:

What are the major differences between the Xy450 and the Xy451?
When do I need to use an Xy451 instead of an Xy450?

Also,  I would like to know what is the standard setting for bytes/sector
on an Xy450 used in a Sun 2 system (my Xy450 uses 1056 bytes/sector for some
strange reason)?  Does it make a difference what the bytes/sector is set to?

My Xy450 Rev G part number ends in a 912,  which means that it is *not* 512
bytes/sector which is what I would expect would be used by the Unix O/S.

Thanks in advance,

to some extent, i hope so. and i am hoping that the new Solaris

as part of a small research team, what is important isnt the
next generation language, programming environment, etc, it is the
politics of the software component makers. for example, i use XGL
because i need it. but it is, of course, a portability nightmare.
i love the idea that i can use sophisticated graphical components
to build applications. i shouldn't have to be in the business
of "software commdities" in order to build advanced applications.
so on one level, SVID is gospel in this marketplace. but we
need to go farther faster: XGL/ISAM/RPC/OMG/etc. that is
where the interesting struggle is.

The survey that was posted here recently indicated that 60+% of "seats" use
olwm, *and* 60+% of "seats" use Motif. I'd really love to know how that works.
Looks like more of the old "lies, damn lies, and statistics" stuff to me.

We provide all of OpenWindows, X11R4 and X11R5 here on our Suns (can't afford
Motif for 80+ workstations), and let the users choose. The default setup for
new users was OW, and most of them stuck with that because it was a *lot* 
easier to customize than plain X11. I used to use twm and X11R4 myself, but 
switched when I found that a) I couldn't answer people's questions, and b) a 
lot of commercial Sun apps don't work *quite* right in plain X. About the only 
thing I miss is the wireframe popup that allowed placement of a window where 
*I* wanted it. Other than that, sure, there's lots of little inconveniences 
and it's slow to start up, but you get used to all of that (and just how often
do you start it up, anyway? Not very often for most people with their own
workstation on their desk).

There may be other implications when you start getting into development for
windowing systems, but I really think far too big a deal is being made of this
for plain ordinary non-hacker users who just want to get their work done. It's
just another personal preference issue at that level.

I want to use the dump command to backup a full volume instead
of just each partition.  I thought that you could talk about
the whole partition by using the name of the drive (ex: sd0) and
the c slice.  But this doesn't work.  It just seems to backup
the first partition of the drive.  Here is the command I use:

/etc/dump 0ubdsf 126 540000 6000 /dev/nrst0 /dev/sd0c

This will backup only the root partion instead of the whole
volume.  


This is how the man page lists the procedure:

To make a full backup of the entire disk sd3, on a 2.3-GByte
     8mm tape st2, use:
 
          dump 0dsbfu 54000 6000 126 /dev/rst2 /dev/sd3c



What am I doing wrong?

So did they work OK with:

	1) the X11/NeWS server and "twm"?

	2) the MIT X11R4 server and "olwm"?

	3) neither?

(My pure guess is the answer is 2), i.e. that the toolkit is depending

Organization: University of Newcastle, AUSTRALIA

I want to improve the sound from the internal speaker of a SparcStation 1+. 
This would be a simple case of getting an external speaker such as is used on 
portable cassette players (Sony Walkman, etc), I thought.

I managed to find in the documentation (it was well-hidden :-) a statement
that anything plugged into the sound output socket should have an impedance of
30 ohms or more. However, all of the external speakers (powered and unpowered) 
I could find have an impedance of only 4 or 8 ohms. 

Now all of these are claimed to be suitable for connecting to a Walkman. But
the impedances of headphones suitable for a Walkman are all 27-32 ohms. 

So, can I use external speakers with 4-8 ohm impedance on the Sun, or will I 
blow up the sound chip?

Hi... I'm having a problem using a Sun 3/60 (prom rev lvl. 1.6) with
an Archive QIC-150 SCSI tape. 

When I try to boot a SunOS 4.1.1 boot tape (60 Mb format) from the
prom monitor ("b st()") it fails with a complaint about "sense" or
something, or sometimes with "dma never completed". 

In addition, "/usr/etc/suninstall/toc_xlat st0" fails to read the boot
tape on this drive or on another drive attached to the system (a
QIC-24 drive which also won't work for booting) It fails with the
message: 
  
  ./toc_xlat: cannot read file /etc/install/XDRTOC from /dev/nrst0

The same command succeeds with the same tape on another 3/60, and the
other 3/60 will also boot the tape from the prom monitor with "b st()"
without any problems. 

Any ideas?

Several vendors have told me that I can't. One vendor actually told me that the
"drive goes too fast & will burn up the computer". She was talking about a 5.25
external drive! (Sounds like she has an overactive imagination.)

I would think that on a SS1, a high speed drive would negotiate the transfer
rate downward to something the host adaptor could keep up with. But I can't
believe that:

   a) it wouldn't work at all

   b) it might damage the computer.

I'm specifically interested in adding one of the newer 2.0G or 3.5G drives
to my old & wheezy Sparc 1. Which will soon get a motherboard swap to become a 
SS2-clone.

One nice feature of the Superworkstation board swap: I can still use my old memory. 80ns
simms work with this board. So I don't have buy all new memory.

More correctly, 60+% of the seats use OpenWindows 3 for their server and
60+% of the seats use mwm for their window manager.  No magical 120% here
because these two answers were in two disjoint questions.  Here are some
pieces from the original post:

------
[...]

NOTE: The first numeric column is the total number of responses that
indicated this answer.  The second numeric column is the percentage
this total represents.  The third numeric column is "scaled" by the
value people indicated (if any) for their answer.  The fourth column
is the percentage this total represents.  In short, the first group
can be viewed as the number of "sites" and the second group can be
viewed as the number of "seats".

2. What window system software do you use?
	A. OpenWindows 2
	B. OpenWindows 3
	C. MIT X11R4
	D. MIT X11R5
	E. SunView

	A.	07 (08%)	022 (02%)
	B.	39 (44%)	669 (67%)  <- 67% of 100% for Question 2
	C.	09 (10%)	084 (08%)
	D.	32 (36%)	200 (20%)
	E.	02 (02%)	025 (03%)
		--------	---------
TOTAL		89		1000


3. What window manager do you use?
	A. olwm (or derivative)
	B. mwm
	C. twm (or derivative)
	D. Other (Specify: _____________)

	A.	33 (42%)	144 (16%)
	B.	16 (20%)	567 (61%)  <- 61% of 100 for Question 3
	C.	24 (30%)	187 (20%)
	D.	06 (08%)	025 (03%)
		--------	---------
TOTAL		79		923


I apologize if this was confusing.
