I have installed IDS 9.4 on a Red Hat Linus box. I have it working fine from the box locally. I cannot connect to the instance from the network though. I set the port in the /etc/services file and have rebooted the machine. What else am I missing? ONCONFIG: DBSERVERNAME lnx_test_shm # Name of default database server DBSERVERALIASES lnx_test_asx,lnx_test # List of alternate dbservernames SQLHOSTS: lnx_test_shm onipcshm informix lnx_test_shmlnx_test_asx sesoctcp informix 1527 lnx_test sesoctcp informix 1526 Thanks, Lennie Informix DBA Information Technology Tax team Lake County, IL O: 847-377-2092 C: 847-309-7718 Math illiteracy affects 7 out of every 5 people.

Is the port number listed in the /etc/services file of the client machine, (the machine from which you're trying to connect)? --John. --- "Jarratt, Li...." <LJarratt@co.lake.il.us> wrote: > > I have installed IDS 9.4 on a Red Hat Linus box.

On Linux and 9.40, the protocol is onsoctcp, not sesoctcp, for your last 2 connections. You also need a NETTYPE parameter in your onconfig. Mine are like this: NETTYPE soctcp,2,90,NET NETTYPE ipcshm,1,90,CPU Probably will require an engine bounce to take effect. Sean R.

Thanks all. I had use sesoctcp instead of onsoctcp. Lennie -----Original Message----- From: Sean Durity [mailto:sdurity@cornercap.com] Sent: Wednesday, July 13, 2005 1:29 PM To: Jarratt, Li....
