Ok, got rid of udp, oninit now accepts my sqlhosts, but when i run it it (with oninit -iv) gets to "Onlining 2 IO vps" and then prints out A LOT of "semctl: errno = 22"-sentences. Hmm, can you help me on that...? /Jesper On Wed, 8 Mar 2000, Obnoxio The Clown wrote: > > From: Jesper Thorhauge <jespert@cs.auc.dk> > > > >Trying to setup informix 7.30.U on linux.

All the versions of Informix I've installed have deep down in the directory structure a file which tells you what kernel parameters need altering and the correct values, and what the allowable protocols for that port are. Have you found that document and implemented the kernel changes if any?

What version of Linux are you using? I am using RedHat 6.1 and have not had to update any of my kernel parameters. Just added my service as "sqlexec1 1901/tcp " in my /etc/services file and added a corresponding entry in my $INFORMIX/etc/sqlhosts file. Configuring the engine was a breeze after that. Hope this helps. Regards....
