RE: Informix Network Connection

Thomas, I believe the correct network connection type for linux is tlitcp not soctcp. -----Original Message----- From: owner-informix-list@iiug.org [mailto:owner-informix-list@iiug.org] On Behalf Of Thomas Ronayne Sent: Saturday, March 13, 2004 7:03 AM To: informix-list@iiug.org Subject: Informix Network Connection I am unable to figure out how to make a network connection and would appreciate someone pointing me in the right direction. On my Slackware Linux 9.1 system, Informix Dynamic Server 7.30.U, I'm trying to get the network connection working (so I can use PHP with Informix). The shared memory connection works fine, but attempting to get the network connection started is an abject failure (and, yes, I've been through the Client/Server Communications section of the manual and I've tried everything I can think of).

Any help would be most appreciated. sending to informix-list

(Suse 9.0) It will be in release notes anyways.
