Network Card with SGI
The Octane is driving me nuts . It was sitting on the network doing its job nicely and i had to pull the n/w cable out from the wall to pull it from the inside of the table and connected it again . The logs show this -- link down .... < when i pulled it out >
link ok < when i connected >

But now the link network just refuses to work . I know the jack is working because i tried it on the Mac alongside it . But it dosent work with IRIX . I tried rebooting but to no avail . So i put it on diagnosis mode to see if there was a hardware failure . Didnt show anything unusual . So i booted it again . The network started working . Just out of curiosity I pulled out the Ethernet cable and fixed it again and there, it went down with it.

Now is it that i cant disconnect the cable when the machine is on when it comes to SGI. and if it is intrinsic how can i make it to network again.

My hunch is the n/w card is nearing its end but still i do not want to jump to conclusions..

Thanx
DP

named-xfer

named-xfer(8)						      System Manager's Manual						     named-xfer(8)

Name
       named-xfer - pull BIND/Hesiod zones from another server

Syntax
       /usr/etc/named-xfer -z zone_to_transfer -f db_file -s serial_no [ -d debug_level ] [ -l debug_log_file ] [ -t trace_file ] [ -p port ] [ -n
       ] [ -a auth_type.auth_ver ] servers...

Description
       The transfer daemon, is a server that is usually run by the daemon, but it can also be run manually with the given arguments.  The transfer
       daemon  runs  on  a BIND/Hesiod secondary server and pulls BIND/Hesiod zones from a primary server.  This daemon is not run by default, nor
       can it be started up from

Options
       -z zone_to_transfer
			  This option is required to pull a zone.  The zone_to_transfer argument specifies the name of the BIND/Hesiod	zone  that
			  the daemon will transfer, for example, dec.com.

       -f db_file	  This option is  required to pull a zone.  The db_file argument specifies the name of the file into which the pulled zone
			  information is placed.

       -s serial_no	  This option is required to pull a zone.  The serial_no argument should be set to the current serial number  of  the  SOA
			  record for the zone zone_to_transfer.  If serial_no is set to 0, the zone is always pulled.

       -d debug_level	  The debug_level argument sets the debug level and determines the amount of debug information to be displayed.

       -l debug_log_file  The debug_log_file argument specifies the file that will contain any debug messages from the zone pull.

       -t trace_file	  The trace_file argument specifies the file that will contain a trace from the zone pull.

       -p port		  The port argument specifies the port that will be used instead of the default nameserver port listed in

       -n		  This	option	must be used when the daemon is running in the network safe mode.  It indicates that the zone pull must be
			  authenticated.

       -a  auth_type.auth_ver
			  This option must be used if the daemon is running in the network safe mode.  The auth_type argument indicates what  type
			  of authentication to use and the auth_ver argument indicates what version of the authentication type to use.	Currently,
			  the auth_type must be "kerberos" and the auth_ver must be "one".

       servers...	  The servers argument is a list of Internet addresses from which to pull a zone.  If the first host cannot be	ddreached,
			  the transfer daemon will try to pull the zone from the next host listed.
