In there, there is a script ods.rc which is what I use, suitably edited. to bring up OnLine on my machines. The residual hard part is knowing where to put it so that it happens automatically. On Solaris, it goes in /etc/init.d, with suitable links in either /etc/rc2.d or /etc/rc3.d. I usually put it in rc2.d so even if the machine is bit running as a server over the net, the databases are available to me. YMMV. And the specific directories where it should be installed will probably be different, too. -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@informix.com, jleffler@earthlink.net) Guardian of DBD::Informix -- see http://www.perl.com/CPAN #include <disclaimer.h>
