Translating with DrWatson… this can take a few seconds the first time.
This is a genuine, complex translation. DrWatson protects commands, error codes, and log output while naturally translating the surrounding text. It’s translated once and saved.

It sounds like you are trying to connect to Informix from a remote machine.
If this is the case check your /etc/hosts.equiv or your .rhosts file. Make
sure these are set properly to allow to allow access from the remote
machine. Also check the /etc/hosts.deny file and amke sure the remote
machine is not in there. If you are trying to connect locally make sure your
INFORMIXSERVER variable is set to the local connection and not to one that
is pointing to a remote machine.
