Hi RTM,
Sorry, been late replying to your post because of the holidays. Anyway, tried the netstat -nr before but it specifies the IP address of the machine itself as the gateway. This I couldn't quite understand.
I can't consult the man pages as there aren't any. I am just new here at work and they lost all references long ago.
The files /etc/hosts.allow and /etc/hosts.deny do not exist and the network guys already said firewalls has been opened and the vendor can go in to another server so that proves it.
This is indeed close Unix, but some commands in this old box are being rejected mainly due to parameters.
And yes, I've been to QNX website lotsa times before but not much help.
I guess purchasing a support from them would be the last straw, but still best to keep looking as the problem is only due to connectivity.
Thank you very much for you help!
