Hey managers! I have a few of questions about things that are happening
during the boot up of my Tru64 4.0f Alpha. I am not sure if they are
related so I may be grouping a couple of problems into one long email. My
apologies for my complete ignorance of the term brevity.
I wonder if the following problems have to do with netrain and ASU. I have
had each installed separately and working correctly on the Alpha, but I have
odd messages when they are both running at the same time.
1. I installed ASU (version 4.1 I believe) successfully using setld and
then removed it using setld -d (four subsets). Firstly, is this a clean and
accepted way to 'uninstall' software? Is there anything left behind that
could cause trouble in another program, or if I were to try to reinstall
ASU? Well, then I reinstalled it and it seems to work fine. The only
problem is that during the boot I see the following:
System messages...

I don't have any crontab entries with grep in them, so that is not the
problem. What I want to know is where are the grep messages coming from? I
think that I know where, but I am not sure of why. I ran asusetup again
just to double-check my configuration. I change anything, but I got the
same grep error statements as above right after:
Starting the transports...
So, it would seem that there is something wrong with the script. I am not
any kind of scripting guru so I wonder if anyone has seen this problem
before, or if anyone could give me a hint on what to look for.(or an
explanation as to why this is happening) I did a: "/usr/sbin> grep "grep -"
asusetup" and there were no illegal flags in the file. Why is this seen at
startup and how I can fix it?
2. My server has no hostname. I have the line: "HOSTNAME="mustang" in the
/etc/rc.config file but the command hostname returns nothing. If I run the
command: "hostname mustang" I know that I will get that as a hostname, but
what file is that configured in if not the rc.config? Is this some kind of
problem with netrain and ASU configured together?(ASU config names mustang,
itself, as the primary)
3. In the console log when logging directly onto the server as root I am
getting the following:
Console log for
rsh: illegal option -- s
usage: rsh [-ndx] [-l login] host [command]
rsh: illegal option -- s
usage: rsh [-ndx] [-l login] host [command]
rsh: illegal option -- s
usage: rsh [-ndx] [-l login] host [command]
There are no console messages for any other user when logging on directly to
the server. Snooping around I found the following in the /.dt/errorlog
file:
Mon Dec 11 13:50:20 2000
dtsession: ><Unable to find a host entry for .
Try adding an entry in /etc/hosts for it.
Mon Dec 11 13:50:21 2000
dtsession: An attempt to restore the following
command (using the DT remote execution process)
on host "-screen" failed:
/usr/bin/X11/dxconsole
The following execution string will be tried:
rsh -screen -n /usr/bin/X11/dxconsole &
Any idea what this means? Host entry for '.'? Do I have a period
configured as a host somewhere? Is this period supposed to be 'mustang' the
name of the server? Does this have something to do with ASU as well? I
tried:
/usr/dt/bin> strings dtsession | grep rsh
and got:
rsh %s -n %s &
This seems to be the statement where the message is coming from, so where
does it get the string "-screen" from? Does this have anything to do with
ASU or netrain?
Thanks in advance!!
