Operating Systems HP-UX Suppressing errors from command output Post 303017223 by gull04 on Friday 11th of May 2018 04:10:31 AM

Hi,

The script expects to see the resolve.conf file, so is correctly identifying the missing file - touching the file removes the error.

There are a number of options, the simplest is probably to do;

Code:
touch /etc/resolv.conf
chmod 440 /etc/resolv.conf

Alternatively you could send the stderr to /dev/null

Your final option would be to modify the script and put the offendin part of the script inside a test condition - running if the resolv.conf file exists.

Regards

LEARN ABOUT NETBSD

compat_ultrix

COMPAT_ULTRIX(8)					    BSD System Manager's Manual 					  COMPAT_ULTRIX(8)

NAME

     compat_ultrix -- setup procedure for ULTRIX compatibility on MIPS and VAX architectures

DESCRIPTION

     NetBSD/mips and NetBSD/vax architectures can run Risc ULTRIX and VAX ULTRIX executables, respectively.  However, you have to worry about the
     legal issues of ensuring that you have a right to use any ULTRIX binaries on your machine.

     Most executables will work.  The exceptions include programs that use proprietary, ULTRIX-specific features (LAT, CI support, DECnet support)
     and various system calls, ioctl()'s, or ULTRIX kernel semantics that are difficult to emulate (e.g. ULTRIX packetfilter) or buggy (e.g.
     ULTRIX NIS).

     All ULTRIX executables are static, so no shared libraries are required for ULTRIX compatibility.  However, ULTRIX is based on a 4.3BSD alpha
     release.  ULTRIX commands and libraries are often much older than their NetBSD or even SunOS 4.x equivalents, and may require incompatible
     configuration files.

SYSTEM CONFIGURATION FILES

     Set up resolv.conf and svc.conf as below:

	   # mkdir -p /emul/ultrix/etc
	   # cd /emul/ultrix/etc
	   # egrep 'domain|nameserver' /etc/resolv.conf > ./resolv.conf
	   # cp -p /usr/share/examples/emul/ultrix/etc/*     ./

   /etc/resolv.conf
     The ULTRIX resolver library only understands domain and nameserver lines in resolv.conf(5).  You should create a copy of /etc/resolv.conf
     containing only those commands and put it in /emul/ultrix/etc/resolv.conf.  Note that the domain search order used by ULTRIX executables may
     not be the same as native binaries; there is no good way around this.

   /etc/svc.conf
     ULTRIX uses /etc/svc.conf to select an ordered search of NIS, Hesiod, or local flat-file mappings.  You should create an
     /emul/ultrix/etc/svc.conf specifying either local files or bind (DNS) lookups for all ULTRIX name services.

     resolv.conf(5)

BUGS

     RISC ULTRIX NIS (YP) is known to not work.  The ULTRIX NIS libraries have a consistent endian-ness bug.  ULTRIX NIS client will not inter-
     operate with the NetBSD ypbind(8) process.  The only workaround is to use /etc/svc.conf to disable NIS (YP).

     The ndbm hashed-password file used by ULTRIX are incompatible with the db hashed-password file used by NetBSD.  There is no good solution for
     this.  NIS would be a good one, if ULTRIX NIS worked.

     The API used by Xservers to talk to the kernel is currently compatible with ULTRIX 4.1.  An implementation of the ULTRIX 4.2 Xws interface
     (used by X11R6) is in progress.

     A complete list of things which fail to work in ULTRIX compatibility mode should be added here.
