Thanks. I'll look into that.
the wiki is fine, you missed something, people always miss some
step.
I.m sure that is the case.
bootes should be in sys not kim... see below
Is it normal to set up a user that is a member of sys, in this
case kim, so that that user can do system maintenance?
Or, should I log in as sys when I need to do maintenance?
Should I assign passwords to sys and adm? Normally I would
think so.
you didn't run /sys/lib/newuser like the adding a new user wiki says,
that script creates a standard env for the new user when he/she
starts the system , like binding /usr/$user/tmp to /tmp, so /tmp
is replaced by the user's tmp dir.
Yes, I definitely forgot that.
mv: can't create /rc/bin/service.auth/il566: '/rc/bin/
service.auth/il566' permission denied
mv: can't create /rc/bin/service.auth/tcp567: '/rc/bin/
service.auth/tcp567' permission denied
mv: can't stat /rc/bin/service/il566: '/rc/bin/service/il566'
does not exist
mv: can't stat /rc/bin/service/tcp567: '/rc/bin/service/tcp567'
does not exist
that's why there is a if() in the standard cpurc, so you don't get
that error
I do have the following lines in cpurc.
if(! test -e /rc/bin/service.auth/il566){
mv /rc/bin/service.auth/authsrv.il566 /rc/bin/service.auth/il566
mv /rc/bin/service.auth/authsrv.tcp567 /rc/bin/service.auth/tcp567
mv /rc/bin/service/il566 /rc/bin/service/_il566
mv /rc/bin/service/tcp567 /rc/bin/service/_tcp567
}
bootes should be in sys, not kim
OK. I don't think the instructions mention that.
you also need to edit your /lib/ndb/local with something like
ipnet=whatever ip=someip ipmask=someipmask
sys=bootesmachine ether=bootesmachineeaddr
auth=bootesmachine
...
I had already done that.
