Changing LTAPEDEV to /dev/null did work for me to free the logs, but ontape still gives the error: # ontape -aServer is in an incompatible state Program over. # I'm also getting a warning message saying, that the network is down. I'm also gettin an error message, while using dbexport, that the client is not trusted by the server. This is very likely not true, because the client is the server itself. I've heard, that informix has problems talking to itself, if there are multiple virtual interfaces present on one machine. This is the case with our machine. It has one physical ethernet interface but multiple IP addresses attached to it. Could that be the source of the problem? thanks, Joachim --------------231B3BAFF741DEA54B8BF5EC Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="joachim.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for Joachim Scherer Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="joachim.vcf" begin:vcard n:Scherer;Joachim x-mozilla-html:TRUE version:2.1 email;internet:joachim@diana.scientific.de x-mozilla-cpt:;0 fn:Joachim Scherer end:vcard --------------231B3BAFF741DEA54B8BF5EC--
