SUN Type 7 Keyboard, Thinklogical KVM Extender and Mouse - Any ideas?
Hello all
rather new to diagnosing hardware issues on SUN platforms (still new to Sol 10 also). Sorry if this is not a great question. I have searched the forums and have not found an answer to my specific issue.
Ok, I have a SUN V215 hooked up to a Thinklogical KVM extender. There are 2 boxes for those not familiar w/thinklogical. Basically, they are KVM extenders over Fiber. Pretty cool devices. Anyway, the issue is that when i have my mouse plugged into the USB 1.1 port and the Keyboard plugged into the USB HID port, all works as advertised. However, we have some more systems coming online that can only use the USB 1.1 ports, and will be using all 4 ports. The problem that i am running into is when i plug the mouse into the keyboard or if i plug it into the USB HID. Keyboard still works, but the mouse locks up and will not move.
I have read the USB primer in SysAd guide 47.16 (devices) and didnt see anything that was of help. I have also ran cfgadm, and it recognizes the mouse. The mouse appears to be configured in the dev tree as well.
Any help you all can provide would be of great assistance.
Thanks

group(5) File Formats Manual group(5)
Name
group - group file
Description
The file is an ASCII file that contains the following information for each group:
Group name
Encrypted password
Numerical group ID
Comma-separated list of all users allowed in the group
Each group name is separated from the next by a new line. The fields are separated by colons. If the password field is null, no password
is demanded.
Because of the encrypted passwords, it can and does have general read permission and can be used, for example, to map numerical group IDs
to names.
The database can be distributed in a network by a naming service, such as Yellow Pages or BIND/Hesiod. See the Guide to the Yellow Pages
Service or the Guide to the BIND/Hesiod Service for setup information.
Restrictions
The command will not change the passwords.
Increasing the number of groups that a user is in beyond 8 can affect services that use SUN RPC. The version of SUN RPC shipped with ULTRX
V4.2 supports up to 32 groups. Prior versions supported users being in up to 8 groups. Users who increase the number of groups that they
are a member of to more than 8 will not be able to NFS mount file systems from ULTRIX servers older than V4.2. If root group membership is
increased to more than 8 groups on a V4.2 system, the YP service may not work if that V4.2 system is in a mixed YP server environment where
there are both V4.2 and previous releases of YP servers. Again, this incompatibility can only occur if a user's or root's group membership
is increased to more than 8 groups.
