If I run isql it finds the remote : database, but when you confirm that the database it has found is : the right one, ISQL just sits saying "Running ....." and never : returns. You can't access an SE database via NFS. This has something to do with locking issues. Maybe this could be something for the FAQ? : I have Informix I-Net on the Unix server which I thought would be : the only requirement, obviously I was wrong. Put I-NET on the client, too, configure the whole stuff according to the manual, and you should be all set.
