According to pg 30 of the I-NET I-STAR User Guide, 'If you are using a client running I-NET, you cannot create a database on a remote UNIX server running TURBO or I-STAR and vice-versa' You would have to have a corresponding Informix product on the server for the create database to work. Perhaps you could set up some sort of remote shell command to do this manually ? Cheers, Richard Ridley
