Re: tbinit Error
Hi. What that message is telling you is that you are short of share memory, all you have to do is to increase a few parameters ( in SCO i think is SHMBASE or something like that ) in your kernel and recompile your OS, That should fix it. >From owner-informix-list@iiug.org Mon Jan 11 11:48:36 1999 >Received: (from majordom@localhost) by iiug.iiug.org (8.7.5/8.7.3) id NAA26645; Mon, 11 Jan 1999 13:45:07 -0600 (CST) >From: "Kevin M.
