Hi bakunin
the script it is running on AIX 4.3.2.0 .
the script itself work fine only when try to check the Status of few variables there are the Problem. What i found out on few comment in the Forum is the AIX makes a different betwenn lookin in interactive mode and in Batch mode.
i wrote just 3 lines of code for Troubleshooting just write te result of the command env in to a file .
And if i now compare the file i got from Batch mode and from interactive mode they are quit different.
And that is my Problem during Batch Login not all variables available.

Thanks a lot for your help , wish you a nice Weekend
With Kind regards

OK. Can you post the script you have trouble with? Because, honestly, i have written scripts and put them in inittab before and i didn't encounter your problem, so i suspect it is something within your script rather than your system. (Albeit with a system which is ~16 years old (IIRC) one never can be sure. 4.3.2 was not even the latest 4.3-system. That should be 4.3.3 ML12.).

I hope this helps.

NAME
flpsed -- annotate PostScript and PDF files SYNOPSIS
flpsed [-bdh] [-t tag=value] [-z zoom] [infile] [outfile] DESCRIPTION
The flpsed utility allows to annotate Postscript files. PDF files can be imported using the pdftops and exported using the ps2pdf utility. If the document was saved in Postscript format, added text can be reedited later. flpsed is useful for filling in forms or adding short com- ments. Batch mode can be used to automate form filling. The options are as follows: -b Batch mode (no GUI). In batch mode flpsed reads from stdin, if no infile is specified. Batch mode is useful in combination with the file ... -t option. -d Dump tags and values from a document to stdout (implies -b ). -h Show short help text. -t tag=value Set text to value where tag is tag Multiple -t options are allowed. -z zoom Set initial zoom value in percent. -geometry WxH+X+Y Set initial geometry. -iconic Start iconified. -scheme string Use fltk scheme string Currently fltk supports "plastic" and "gtk+". EXIT STATUS
The flpsed utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. EXAMPLES
The command: flpsed file1 will start flpsed and load file1 for interactive editing. The command: flpsed -b -t foo=bar file1 file2 will set the text of all text fields in file1 carrying the tag "foo" to "bar" and write the resulting Postscript document to file2 SEE ALSO
