Re: CLI with WIN95 and Online 5.X
Posted in 1997
The problem was that CLI 2.5 requires for the server running Online 5.x and I-Star to have the client's PC IP and Host name in it's /etc/hosts file. Glad it is no longer needed for Informix 7.x Instances. FYI the case number is 653511 and should be closed with this resolution. ---------------------- Forwarded by KENDRICKS CHERYL/HEB45 on 07/22/97 05:28 PM --------------------------- From: KENDRICKS CHERYL on 07/18/97 10:33 AM To: slobodan.zorko@zg.tel.hr cc: Informix-list@rmy.emory.edu Subject: Re: CLI with WIN95 and Online 5.X (Document link not converted) I have I-Star on the 5.x instances, this is not my problem. I have submitted this as an case with Informix and my finding thus far is that a PATCH version of CLI (which is 2.5.TD2 ) was shipped to us for NT (NT and WIN95 use the same software for CLI). I tested this version on the NT and it is working! So I plan to install it on my WIN95 PC. If it works then I will be sure to let everyone in the list know, as well as, request that my case with Informix be closed with this information. slobodan.zorko@zg.tel.hr on 07/18/97 04:09:13 AM Please respond to slobodan.zorko@zg.tel.hr To: informix-list@rmy.emory.edu cc: (bcc: KENDRICKS CHERYL/HEB45) Subject: Re: CLI with WIN95 and Online 5.X KENDRICKS.CHERYL@heb.com wrote in article <5q67l7$p37@cssun.mathcs.emory.edu>... > I have been able to access our Informix Online 7.x engine using the I-LOGON > utility.
