The Informix shared memory segments are owned by: user=root, group=informix. You can identify them by: 1) Adding your Informix SERVERNUM (in hex) to 5256. 2) Substitute the result from step (1) for "xxxx" in the following command: ipcs -m | grep "xxxx" For example, if SERVERNUM=30 (x'1E'), the command would be: $ ipcs -m | grep 5274 m 10 0x52744801 --rw-rw---- root informix m 11 0x52744802 --rw-rw---- root informix m 12 0x52744803 --rw-rw-rw- root informix Rick Bernstein
