To get a new I.P. address, link to the arctalk disk (IBMCONF 24A), fill out the IPNAME FORM and send it to IPNAME at ALMADEN. Phyllis Salac handles these requests on Tuesday and Thursday. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- To see what I.P. addresses and machine names are in use now, link to the tcpinfo disk (IPMAINT 1A0) disk and look at ALMADEN LAN. ALMADEN LAN is the definitive source, not to be confused with ARCLAN HOST on ARCLAN's 196 disk, which is similar to ALMADEN LAN, but reformatted wi a special Tom Heald program nightly. There's also an AIX copy of it that Dale copies down at /afs/almaden.ibm.com/u/copyaix/shadow/almaden.lan. To drop a hung userid on TCPIP, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- - First determine which TCPIP gateway he's coming through. * If you know his logical address, you can Q L066, for example. If you don't, you can CONSOLE Q L000-LFFF and look for the userid. Alternatively, you could IPSELECT & CONSOLE NETSTAT TELNET all 3 TCPIP virtual machines until you find the one you want. *-----------------------------------* * TCPIP3 = Pink (IPMAINT 7A3) * * TCPIPTWO = Red (IPMAINT 7A2) * * TCPIP = Green (IPMAINT 7A1) * * TCPTEST = Test (IPMAINT 792) * * aka Blue * * Orange - Reserved * * Yellow - Reserved * *-----------------------------------* - Once you know which TCPIP machine it is, IPSELECT Pink|Red|Green. (btw, once you do the IPSELECT, you can look at the TCPIP DATA file on that disk to see the controlling virtual machine.) - CONSOLE NETSTAT TELNET, find the userid and get the CONN number, a 4-digit number. - NETSETAT DROP #### using that 4-digit CONN number.
