UNIX for Advanced & Expert Users

Hello all,
These are some commands in Compaq.I need some alternative on HP.Please anybody help me.../usr/sbin/rcmgr
/usr/tcb/bin/edauth
/usr/sbin/sizer
/usr/bin/X11/xwininfo
/usr/var/X11/xdm/Xresources
/sbin/sysconfig -s
/usr/var/X11/xdm/GiveConsole

Thanks in advance,
shilpa

I am an HPUX admin and can help you with these commands, but it would help if you could tell what each of these do. I have looked on my 11.0 N-class boxes and can't find most of these commands.


Here is what I have found.

/sbin/init.d/swconfig #for your sysconfig -s command

/usr/contrib/bin/X11/xwininfo # exact match for your xwininfo

/usr/sbin/sysdef # shows kernel parms #maybe not same as sysconfig above


Also, you might check the HP posting siteat www.itrc.hp.com. it is very similary to this site, but HPUX specific. They do answer questions related to other OSs as well as they relate to HPUX.

Thanx for the reply...I am sending the meanings of all the above commands below...Hope u can help some more...rcmgr, rc.config -

rcmgr, rc.config = Gets, sets, or deletes runtime configuration variables
stored in the files /etc/rc.config, /etc/rc.config.common, and
/etc/rc.config.site

edauth = update and list authentication and capabilities (authcap) database
information (Enhanced Security)

sizer = Displays information about the system or kernel, or creates a sys-
tem configuration file

xwininfo = window information utility for X

sysconfig = Maintains the kernel subsystem configuration
-s [subsys]... (subsysten state)
Queries the subsystem state for the specified subsystems. If you omit
the subsystem name, sysconfig displays the state of all the configured
subsystems.


Thank you,
shilpa

Here is some more info.

### for your rcmgr, rc.config is in /etc called rc.config as below. Here is the output of the executable script.

/etc> cat rc.config
# This script sources configuration files for various subsystems. Configuration
# variables are in files CFG_FILE in /etc/rc.config.d/*, and /etc/TIMEZONE.
# Simple error checks are done: test file perms and for dumped "core" files.
# Filenames containing [.,~#] are not sourced - they are possible names of
# backup files such as file.bak, file.OLD, ~file, file~, file,v, #file etc.

for CFG_FILE in /etc/rc.config.d/* /etc/TIMEZONE
do
fname=${CFG_FILE##*/} # get file basename
if [ -f $CFG_FILE -a "$fname" != "core" -a "${fname##*[.,~\#]}" = "$fna]
then . $CFG_FILE # source a valid config file
fi
done

I think the sizer is similar to the "sysdef" command. If you have 11.i then the command is "kmtune".

/root> type sysdef
sysdef is /usr/sbin/sysdef

root> type kmtune
kmtune is /usr/sbin/kmtune

Regarding the edauth. I believe that is totally Compaq specific. HPUX has three products called Sysguard, Perfview, and Measureware/Glance that are used for security and the other two are for performance monitoring.


Hope that this helps you. You can go to www.itrc.hp.com and query the search engine for more info on this.
