Thanks, I will try that method also.

My buddy also found that install method from client:

Code:
CLIENT # nimclient -o cust -a lpp_source=RPMS_AIX53 -a  filesets=sudo-1.6.9p23-2noldap.aix5.3.ppc.rpm -a accept_licenses=yes -a  show_progress=yes

As for @bakunin method ... it also work, displays errors, but works, here are the results:

Before.

Code:
CLIENT # rpm -qa
AIX-rpm-7.1.1.15-1
tcl-8.4.7-3
tk-8.4.7-3
expect-5.42.1-3
bash-3.2-1

After.
Code:
CLIENT # rpm -qa
sudo-1.6.9p23-2noldap
tcl-8.4.7-3
tk-8.4.7-3
expect-5.42.1-3
bash-3.2-1
AIX-rpm-7.1.2.0-2

Commands from NIM.

Code:
NIM # nim -F -o allocate -a lpp_source="RPMS_AIX53" "CLIENT"
NIM # nim -F -o deallocate -a lpp_source="nim_script" "CLIENT"
NIM # nim -o cust -a lpp_source="RPMS_AIX53" -a filesets="sudo-1.6.9p23-2noldap 1.6.9p23-2noldap" "CLIENT"
