  Nobody believes me anymore :)

  I realize that there is a command called xmonitor (that is not installed on
any of my RS/6000's) that there is a man page for in InfoExplorer. However, what
I said was true: IBM supplied me with an IBM Xstation 130 specific program that
they called "xmonitor", that monitors the Xstation. Perhaps I have just been
overly lucky. Remember that I said that it is an internal tool, so they can name
it whatever they want.

  I cannot prove it to you, but I can demonstrate:

thunder> ls
help.txt         server.list      xmonitor.bit
line_attributes  xmonitor
thunder> nm xmonitor | head
         U AIX_ASYNC
         U NLstrtime
         U XAllocNamedColor
         U XClearWindow
         U XCreateGC
         U XCreatePixmapFromBitmapData
         U XCreateWindow
         U XDrawLine
         U XDrawLines
         U XESetCloseDisplay

  Notice that there a X11 calls in this application. Seems a little weird for an
X.25 monitoring program.

  If you want, I can send you a [gif, X bitmap, postscript, etc.] file of a
window dump showing the application. Really.

    Cheers,

... thanks to all who replied.

I'd got some interesting suggestions (eg. to use fully qualified
domain names) and tested a bit further without any result.

But when somebody else started to look into the problem and 
issued a 'showmount -e risc3' command, I recognized a line of 
output that shouldn't have been there ...

There had been a /usr/local and a /vol file system on the server,
which were merged some time ago. Since /usr/local/gnu ought to 
become /vol/gnu, I made a sym.link /usr/local -> /vol to make 
a complete recompile of all our GNU software unneccessary. 
(And there the bad thing happened: I forgot to remove /usr/local
from the exports file !)

Now there was a inconsistency between the export restrictions 
of /vol and /usr/local, since /usr/local had not been exported to 
all our systems. Although the client requested /vol, the restrictions 
of /usr/local were applied to the request...

Looks like export restrictions are bound to the inode of the file 
system root.

After removing the entry for /usr/local from the list of exported 
file systems, mounting /vol worked just fine ...

We have a network of RSs for Catia.  I occasionally edit a file

I am trying to figure out what causes this to display.  I cannot find

I think this is pretty much true (aside from the install manual)
because most customers tend to go the CDROM route (not every machine
needs to have one as long as one on the network does) for
documentation which is very cheap compared to buying hardcopy and
easier to update. You can of course choose to get hardcopy of anything
too. Your marketing rep should be able to provide you with available
documentation listings and pricing.

I'm sorry to say, that at this present time, IBM does not
support third party CDROM drives for the RS/6000.  That is to say, there
is no equivalent to "osdisk" for the CDROM.

While network-installation is possible, can one also
do network-backup? That is, back up files on one
RS/6000 machine using tape-drives connected into
another RS/6000 machine, where the two RS/6000
machines are on the same ethernet running TCP/IP?

I only want to address the "smit/install/update" portion of your question.

The update identified by ptf U406855 has a special type of requisite, known as
ifrequisite, on updates U404783, U404992, and U405126 of the "Profiling
support" (bosadt.prof) and "Development Libraries" (bosadt.lib) options of
bosadt.  These are two separately installable options (or subcomponents as
you called them) with no dependency upon one another.

The ifrequisite (ifreq) dependency says, "If the base level of the update
being ifreqed is installed, then you must install the update."  I'm guessing
that you have the base level (the original 3.2.0.0 version) of bosadt.lib.obj
applied but not the base level of bosadt.prof.obj.  This is why the requisite
checking routines of the install/update software require that the updates,
being ifreqed by U406855, to bosadt.lib.obj are installed and not the updates
to bosadt.prof.obj.

The fixes made under U404783, U404992, and U405126 affected both options of
bosadt, hence the identical ptf ids for the updates to each option.  Since
IBM doesn't have an easy way of knowing which options to bosadt you actually
have installed you are shipped updates to both options and it's left to the
install/update routines to figure out what should actually be applied.

In answer to this portion of your question, the smit/install/update routines
do handle identical PTF numbers correctly and it would appear, if indeed
you do not have bosadt.prof.obj installed, that your subcomponents are not
out of sync as a result of applying these updates.

Thanks,

JFK

As other people have responded, this is most likely a problem with someone
overrunning their malloc'ed buffer and corrupting malloc's pointers.  These
types of problems are notoriously difficult to debug.  A usefull technique
is to determine how much memory is being requested in the malloc() that
fails then to sprinkle equivalent malloc()'s in the code at stratigic
locations.  You should be able to brackett the code causing the corruption
and iterate your way down to the line causing the corruption.

Pranav,
Sun and rs/6k are working fine together. (it's so easy to sing the old
songs.) Try a new one - it's name is ODM. AIX maps the /etc/services
file to the ODM database. Try '$ odmget InetServ'. To create a new
well-known port append an entry to /etc/services (like on SUN OS)
and enter the command 'inetimp' to sync /etc/services and ODM, that's
it. Your program can lookup well known ports without a problem. My
programms from the Stevens book are working fine on AIX and SUN OS.

I've had this behaviour a lot on 3.1.6/7  (Not on 3.2 - yet!)  It's very
perplexing, and I can detect no pattern. The cure was to use a FQDN in 
etc/exports, just for that one particular directory for that one particular
client. This has happened for different client/directory combinations, all
the other entries were quite happy using the short hostname only.

I don't know what problems you may have had, but it seems to work for
everyone else who tries it.

PCNFSv4 from Sun has been out for a while.  It contains a new version, (2)
of the pcnfsd protocol.  It also contains v2 of sun's pcnfsd.

We've ported this now to AIX.  

It's not perfect, but it will be available soon (imperfectly) on
