If you have a system with a quad ether (eg. qfe) card, then you don't get much resilience by using IPMP on two ports...

EMS is the HP-UX hardware monitoring system, that will tell you of failed system components (CPUs, memory, disks, fans, etc).
It's telling you there is a problem with the memory on the system.

What's "stats" (OS, example, etc.)?

You can shift from one NIC to another, but it will require an outage:- a reboot, not a reinstall.
It could be as simple as editing the /etc/hostname.eri0, and rebooting, BUT DON'T JUST DO THAT,...

I haven't got a system to hand, but before doing
ndd -get /dev/ce link_status
you have to do
ndd -set /dev/ce instance 0

(I hope I've got the syntax right!)

You can also use a ? instead of...

Perhaps the kind person who set up automounter added in commented entries to vfstab to let you see what they had done.

VMware will support both.
I'm not sure if there are any other virtualisation tools available for Linux.

You could look at using chroot to restrict the permissions.
Basically it makes that shell think its "/" is its home, and so it cannot move to a directory above.
If you google for chroot ftpd, you...

Do the shells have a timeout (ie. they are logging out automatically, and you only notice it when you've been away from your desk for a while and come back and unlock your PC screen)?

Could some lateral thinking work?

Perhaps you could save the file encrypted, so that editing it has to be a 2-stage process.
Of course, your would have to decrypt it for use too.

Sorry - HP-UX only runs on HP's PA-RISC processor based systems, and HP Itanium servers.
However, you can pick up used machines on ebay, if you do wish to take it further.
(Also, HP's Itanium...

An alternative approach would be to use Sudo to execute your script (Sudo can su to accounts other than root)...

Can you ping the printer from the server?
Can you telnet to the JetDirect port (I'm not sure what it uses) from the server?
Are you shuuuure it's the right IP address?
How about the subnet mask?...

Printers - run away and hide!

The lp command has options that can be specified via the -o option, but they are model dependent.

Some manufacturers supply printer interface scripts for UNIX, and...

The information is stored in a binary file that can be interrogated by the command "last".
Enter the command
man last
for details of the command, or just enter
last | more
to see what it does.

Here is a cron entry that would probably work:
0,30 * * * * /mydir/errpt

However, there are some gotchas:
1. You may not have permission to run cron jobs, so cron.allow would need your account...

Man - December is going to be a long month this year!

You could try putting the filename in single quotes, like:
rm 'ads[1].c'
I think the shell is trying to interpret the "[1]" as a pattern to match any single character within the square brackets...

Web browsers can do ftp://url - would that help?
Otherwise, you could set up a web server (Apache) on UNIX.

Try doing XDMCP-direct to the host's IP address.

ls -x will append a "/" character to directories.

(Incidentally, as porter hints, "man" is the most powerful command on UNIX!)

It totally depends upon the tool the recipient is using to read the mail.
Outlook, Blackberry, HTML, etc.
