Hi, I've been using Informix 7.22 on NT 4.0 service pack 3 without problems. However, since I installed service pack 5, I can't put my server on-line (the protocol used by the server is olsoctcp). I've looked at the logs and the problem seems to be with online.exe, which don't shows the usual messages when starting up, only 12:14:57 DR: DRAUTO is 0 (Off) Does exist any patch or work-arround to make Informix 7.22 work on NT40 SP5? Thanks in advance, Alberto.

NT SP4 and SP5 caused several problems for IDS versions. There should be a Tech Update on the Informix WEB Site listing the version compatibility or you can call tech support and they will tell you what versions you can upgrade to that will work. The alternative is to downgrade NT back to SP3. Art S. Kagel
