Hi Anthony,
If you are only getting a readOnly map and you are the root user, then this has to mean that someone/thing has that map open readWrite. Are you using the map called default?
If you have configured the netviewd daemon to start (not configured 
started out of the box), then netviewd will run the default map in 
readWrite, meaning that you get a readOnly  version.  If this is the 
case, you can grab the map readWrite from netviewd by using the 
"-dconsole" parameter on your netview command that starts up the GUI.
Cheers,
Jane

I just installed netview 7.1.3 FP01 on AIX 5.1 with the defaults.  By 
default I notice when opening the console I bring up using x-windows 
it is read only as root. How can I can change the map so it is 
read-write.  I am very new to netview on unix, and notice that netview 
for windows and unix are nothing alike
