Determine database used?
Hi guys.

Hopefully someone can help me.

We have a old Unix box for the accounts people. What id like to do is query it for the intranet. Trouble is im not sure what type of database the server uses.

How would i go about finding out what it is? I have complete access to the hardrive and root.

Id really appreciate any help Smilie

Incase it helps heres the version:

UNIX System V Release 3.2

I managed to find out what processes are running using ps -u root

Here is what i got.

sched
init
vhand
bdflush
slink
logger
digidl
cron
inetd
syslogd
strerr
cpd
lpd
lpsched
openit
routed
spshed
ftpd
sdd
getty
telnetd
sh
ps

I had a look at them using google. The only one that seems to be database is sdd. But i couldnt find any proper information for it or user manuals. (I suspect im way off now)
