Quick question: are there any AIX gurus out there? I
need to upgrade this
box to 4.1.5 or some Y2K compliant version. I have a contact at IBM who might
be able to get me the upgrade, but I was wondering if anyone out there has the
patches already. 4.2 is apparently right out as I doubt IBM supports the
POWER architecture anymore, but I'd like to be pleasantly surprised.
Sorry, I'm an AIX anti-guru. We have AIX machines here but I tend to avoid
them. (I have wanted to play with the X-specific programs, but I forget the
commands. Also I used to know about the "extract the manual entries from
the database" program but I forget that command too.)
Naturally, Apple doesn't support the NS line
anymore. Figures.
At least you admitted you're off-topic. (Though it is an interesting
machine and it's unsupported, so that counts for something... but not a
tremendous amount.) Why not ask on the AIX newsgroups too?
