I find "cat -vt" pretty nice for making the invisible and odd more behaved. If they slip you a ^J or comma you are a goner, though:
If you write a C or PERL app, you can ignore ^j without 2 commas and reverse ignore comma if more than 2, pushing the user id back to a fixed value. Maybe sometimes they cannot determine the user name from id #, and write the binary id # ?
Does anyone of you know how to turn off color and weird characters on bash shell when using the command "script"? Everytime users on my server used that command to record their script, they either couldn't print it because lp kept giving the "unknown format character" messages or the print paper... (1 Reply)

lsmsad
lsmsad(8) System Manager's Manual lsmsad(8)NAME
lsmsad - Starts the Storage Administrator (SA) daemon
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/lsmsad
DESCRIPTION
The SA daemon, lsmsad, is a process required by lsmsa, the SA graphical user interface (GUI). The daemon issues commands and obtains system
information on behalf of SA.
The SA daemon runs on a Tru64 UNIX system on which LSM is initialized and running. The SA client runs on any machine that supports the
Java Runtime Environment.
The SA daemon is automatically started at boot time. Under normal conditions, the daemon does not need to be run manually.
If SA does not start during the boot process, enter:
/sbin/init.d/lsmsa stop
To restart SA, enter:
/sbin/init.d/lsmsa start
Only one SA daemon can be running on a system at a given time. If a second SA daemon attempts to start, it will fail.
RESTRICTIONS
You must be root user to run lsmsad.
FILES
The script that starts lsmsad at boot time. The command log file that tracks SA tasks. The access log file that tracks login to SA. The
server log file that tracks server startup information and server errors. The log maintenance shell script that saves and compresses log
files.
