For Solaris 7 or earlier, look at Sun Trunking software. Make sure your switch is compatible with Sun Trunking software. If you are running Solaris 8 10/00 or later, you can use IP multi-pathing...

Try finger `cat uname` (the ` are backquotes).

A mutex is a mutual exclusion lock used to serialize access to kernel data structures. You can also use them to serialize access in your own code.

Use /usr/sbin/prtconf. Pipe the output to more or grep Memory.

Ok. Apparently I understood you correctly in the first post. First of all, when you create an object containing a virtual function, you do not create a virtual function table. At compile time, a...

You could always write a script to echo to the tty devices. The device names depend on the OS you're running, but they should be something like /dev/ttya, /dev/ttyb, etc.

i.e.

echo "Please...

Are you exporting the variable? If not, use

export PATH

I use Korn shell or perl. Korn shell is the most robust in terms of shell scripting. Perl is very powerful, but has a longer learning curve.

Sorry about the original post. I thought you had somehow gotten the pointer to the virtual function table and wanted to pass it to another process so the other process could dereference it. I've...

This may or may not be helpful, but I downloaded openssh from http://www.sunfreeware.com and when I run ssh-keygen it asks me for the location to store the rsa1 keyfile. I specify the path where I...

If the virtual function table is in process A, then the pointer to the table is in the process address space of process A and has no meaning in process B, so if you pass the pointer to process B, it...

Look at the mksysb command. You can create a bootable image from one AIX box and install it on another one if they are the same architecture.

See the sigaction() system call man page. The easiest way to do this is create signal handling routines in your code that are called when signals are received. Most, but not all, signals can be...

From the output of your mount command, it looks like you are using Solaris. On Solaris, /home is an automount mount point. If you aren't using automount, then mv /etc/auto_master to...

You can use ps -el and look at the SZ column to get a rough idea. You can also use /usr/proc/bin/pmap to check on a per process basis to get size/segment and add them.

Sendmail and pop use standard UNIX IDs. For each user you just need a valid UNIX ID with password.

In general you can use

tput clear

to clear the screen. Once the screen is clear, display you sub-menu.

A "hidden" file in UNIX is any file whose name begins with a . (that's a dot or a period). To see the file, use the -a option to the ls command (i.e. ls -a).

What problems are you having with...

The TY column is the record type column and the codes mean

dg - disk group
dm - disk media
v - volume
pl - plex
sd - subdisk


Disks (dm) must be added to a disk group (dg) under Veritas. ...

You can't redirect output from a file to itself. When the command line is parsed by the shell, the destination file will be zeroed out before output is sent to it. It is allowable to append to the...

Short answer:

The plumb argument to the ifconfig command is for dynamically activating a network interface without rebooting the system.

Long answer:

If you are configuring a network...

All devices in UNIX are accessed as files. Providing this abstraction requires some pretty complicated programming in the kernel. The programs are called device drivers. Once you write a device...

The chown command will change the owner

chown newowner filename

The chmod command will change the permissions. Permissions are specified as an octal number that can go from 000 to 777.
The...

No, you can remove the file and bounce cron. The log file will be recreated.

See the man page for ufsdump.
