You should be enrolled at the Tivoli customer support web site. That is
www.support.tivoli.com. There you will find Frequently Asked Questions,
electronic access to Support, documentation, and, patches for Framework,
and (come the revolution) patches for Netview, I hope.

No authorization roles are required to use Netview through Tivoli. By
default
anyone can use it.

In V5.1, if you want authentication to use the web client, you are supposed
to
enable Netview security. This is kind of a big step for some people, I
know.
I don't know much about web servers, but  I'm wondering if maybe you could
force athentication by making some modification to the webserver config
files.
If anyone knows how to do that, maybe they would be willing to share that
info?

Cordially,

Hi,

Here are some general questions I have:-

1.  Here are some web pages I have gathered over time:-

        Redbooks : www.rs6000.ibm.com
        Y2k Products Checks: wwwy2k.raleigh.ibm.com
        IANA References:  www.iana.org
                eg. Interface Types, and Enterprise OIDs

        AIX
        -----
        Freeware & Shareware Archive:
www-frec.bull.fr/OSBU2_0/download.htm
        PTFs & BUG Lists: software.services.ibm.com/rs6000

        Are there any other good ones that you know of?


2.   What are the strict Framework authorisation/role requirements
      for using Netview through the Framework Desktop?

3.  The web browser interface for Netview V5R1 doen't seem to
     request authentication information.  Can you change this? If so,
     how?

Thanks,
