On the other hand, you should probably upgrade. Does IBM still support that version of AIX? -- Yours, Jonathan Leffler (Jonathan.Leffler@Informix.com) #include <disclaimer.h> Guardian of DBD::Informix v1.00.PC1 -- http://www.perl.com/CPAN "I don't suffer from insanity; I enjoy every minute of it!"

IBM doesn't support the aix version, but the problem is that changing the aix means changing the computer due to disk space needings. When you say run I-Net on the machine, what do you mean?
