Mark, the libpath business was strictly 4.3, where the level of Motif
changed to R6.  No level of 4.2.x will get you there. A heavily patched
4.2.1 is a pretty good place to be.

I'm wondering how the Nways 1.2.3 got broken, so I hesitate to
advise you on it. You can stop all the Nways daemons and it should
 be ok to use smit to uninstall those parts and reinstall them. Well,
the 8260-60 Hub Manager would best be removed by going to
the Nways smit menu and deinstalling it from there, if it is
probably complete enough. If I were you, I would just clean all of
the nways off (using the Nways menu to do it) and do it over, being
careful to only put on the parts you really want. And don't do them all
at once.

Cordially,

Hello,

I'm hoping someone on the list may offer me tips on fixing broken Nways
1.2.3 CML filesets on AIX 4.2.1.  When I run lppchk -v I'm told  the
following broken filesets must be installed or corrected.  Is there a
manual
way to fix these or should I be able to stop all apps and daemons and
reinstall?

  cml.8230                   3.3.3.0    B    8230 Hub Manager (PSM)
  cml.8238                   3.3.3.0    B    8238 Hub Manager (PSM)
  cml.8250-60                3.3.3.0    B    8250 and 8260 Manager
  cml.Jjim                   3.3.3.0    B    IBM Nways Manager Java jim

On a possibly related subject, I see that there is a "Symptom Fix",
(Document SF3370E) for VLAN and hub icons that are not executable.  This
document and the Nways 1.2.3 Installation Guide refer to changing the
LIBPATH statements in four files, however both documents state that this
problem is restriced to AIX v4.3.x.  My AIX 4.2.1 was heavily patched by my
predecessors in preparation for y2k and I'm wondering if these LIBPATH
edits
may now be applicable, or if applying them would cause any harm.

Any input or suggestions will be greately appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
