I didn't run into problems on RedHat 5.2 but I installed I4GL before installing ISQL. Since the brand program is the same regardless of which product you're using, if the file is simply missing from $INFORMIXDIR/etc after copying ISQL of the CD, try installing one of the I4GL products first. Or use the brand from any of the SE or IDS products -- they'll all do the same job for you... -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@informix.com, jleffler@earthlink.net) Guardian of DBD::Informix v0.60 -- see http://www.perl.com/CPAN #include <disclaimer.h>
