Check the messages in MSGPATH (online.log -- it should be defined in your $INFORMIXDIR/etc/onconfig file). The messages logged there will be somewhat more verbose. What does your sqlhosts file contain? Have you defined NETTYPE in your onconfig? What platform are you running on anyway? Have you read through the files in $INFORMIXDIR/release? So many questions... -- Jay Cliburn | jay@hobo.idec.sdl.usu.edu Space Dynamics Laboratory/USU | IP adx: 129.123.181.2 1747 N.
