IDS7.30 + Linux Kernel 2.2.10 +onsoctcp ?

I'm running RedHat 6.0 (kernel 2.2.5-15) with IDS 7.30.UC7. I've had the network down messages when I didn't have INFORMIXSERVER, etc/sqlhosts and I guess /etc/services in sync. I inadvertently used different names in the various places. Here's an entry from my sqlhosts ids_soc onsoctcp kanu ids_develop And from /etc/services ids_develop 5100/tcp #Informix Dynamic Server And I stuck this in /etc/profile INFORMIXSERVER=ids_soc To complete the picture I would check the shared memory settings with onmonitor or just look in etc/onconfig. In my case the following is set: DBSERVERNAME ids_soc # Name of default database server Hope this helps. Kim Limbrick

Is it possible to connect to an IDS running on Linux (suse 6.1) Kernel 2.2.x via onsoctcp ? The only way I get access to the db-server is local via shared memory. I need to connect to the db-server over the network from other clients via onsoctcp. When I try to set up the server with onsoctcp I get the errormsg "Network down / Cannot connect to network", which doesnt make to much sense, because the network is running fine on other services. Even dbaccess or onmonitor cannot reach the network. Perhaps this belongs to the Kernel-version - I heard, that with Kernel 2.0.36 it should be running, but I have to use 2.2.x for some other reasons. Any solutions ? TIA Martin Gutjahr

I can work with both local shared memory and network connections without any problems. Greetings, Joerg
