Hi!
Can you login directly to Unix as informix with the password you are using?
If not, have user root (your system administrator) assign a new password to
informix.

Hi Michael,
thank your for anser.
I can login directly as User informix on UNIX. I changed the informix pass-
word without any result. Only the database engine answered unknown login.
My next idea is to unload the database with dbexport and with the logins of
the db-users. It is a very long solution because there more than 20GByte
data in the db. I think our backup-system is in the same state. I think
that this is a problem of a system-table, but i couldn't look in the tables.
