Signing onto the package or the node

Ronald Schwartz_1 — Tue, 20 Apr 2004 15:29:38 GMT

Our SG environment has a staging database on the alternate node. The users environment needs to be set up based on where they are connecting, node or package. Is there a way to trace the users to the package abosed to those signed onto the node? Executing hostname always shows the node name never the package.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ron,

Once a user is logged into the package hostname will always show the node ip-adress not the package. Our user policiy is users that only need to access one package get a package homedir. Users that access multiple package ( Oracle) get NFS home dirs.
May be this will help, or may be s.o. else knows an other workaround.

HTH,

Gideon

Well this ain't pretty....but....

you could do a netstat -an

of course this will show you everything, but if you knew the users IP you could grep for that, then you would see who is connected to the direct IP of the box and who is connected via the pkg address.

Anybody want to try and script for this ...

Well I did a little digging and testing and here is what I ended up writing a script. I get the pid that is signing on then use lsof to find out if the pid is signed onto the package. I will use this in the .profile to then go ahead and set the other parameters.

Thanks for your help.
Ron

Attached is a copy of the script.
