11.31 swreg -l depot error

[Matthew Murdock]

When I try to run swreg -l depot , I get a error stating "you do not have permission for this operation", although I am root. I placed a known working /etc/pam.conf in place on the server, but still, no go.

Hello!!!

No. it doesn't requies any pam privilege. check first;
swlist -l depot
check if the depot(depot path) is present.

swreg is use for other purpose.

HI,
If you want to see the list of depot installed in your system then the command will be
swlist -l depot

no need to give other command

and swreg is for register or unregister depots and roots.
see the man page of swreg.

>> Well from this morning itrc search,
"found a previous thread that suggested:
1...stop swagentd (/sbin/init.d/swagentd stop
2... move /var/adm/sw/security security.org
3...cp -rp /usr/newconfig/va/adm/sw/security /var/adm/sw/security
4...start swagentd (/sbin/init.d/swagentd start

after doing this swinstall now works..."
>> This also worked for me with the swreg command. You can register you depots to the SD agent with SWREG. Type in man swreg from the command prompt. Thanks.
