I know I should know the answer to this but I am getting old and the memory is
fading fast :)
Trying to run smit but the display is all over the place (using CURSES)
Termdef brings back vt220
Used to know how to fix this...

If the terminal type you are using in your emulator is vt220, then at the aix
prompt
TERM=vt220
To check what it is set to first
echo $TERM

I wonder if you have installed any gpl or open source software for AIX, that
might have set some environment variable somewhere...
If that is the case, then it could be screwing with (or pointing away from)
the vt220 term def, that smit really needs.
I'm on AIX 5.3 and smit works fine under
Thanks
Fixed it by popping a terminal that we can use the gui on
That'll do :-)

Subject: Re: [U2] smit
We have a client who found uname -Fa on AIX 5.3 doesn't return
the unique system ID value when run through Redback. Suggestions
are welcome about how to get the whole value. For example:
From the command line and UO the result from 'uname -Fa' is:
AIX hostname 3 5 ccsp mmmccs
I am not suggesting that you inspect the actual data passed (I know it
is encrypted), but rather what packets are being passed? Are
handshakes failing? Are responses missing? -- when compared to the
working connection. Do the packets give you an additional clue as to
what is failing?
Tony, are you sure Redback isn't setting some $PATH that's running something
other than the AIX uname (/usr/bin/uname)?

Have you confirmed if it is a reporting problem or a data capture problem?
I.e. is that the uname -Fa is still producing the full output, but the
RedBack environment does not return the entire result?
You could try uname -Fa|tee /tmp/uname.redback.$$ to capture what is being
output and compare
To my knowledge Redback itself isn't being asked for anything. A
BASIC sub was executed and returned the short result - I believe
this does what you're suggesting. That sub also kicks off a
phantom with the same results. Code is below.
FYI, I don't use Redback myself so please forgive any
Do you also get a discrepancy when running uname -f on its own via command
line / UO vs Redback?
