swacl error (and swinstall)

[John Helt]

I just did a new clean install of UX 11.0 on a C200 workstation, and have been struggeling to get swinstall to work.

When I run it, and try to select a target path it always responds with the following error:

"reliant:": You do not have the required permissions to perform this
operation. Check permissions using the "swacl" command or see your
system administrator for assistance. Or, to manage applications
designed and packaged for nonprivileged mode, see the
"run_as_superuser" option in the "sd" man page.

When I run swacl -l host, I get the following error:

# swacl -l host
#
# swacl Host Access Control List
#
# For host: reliant
#
# Date: Wed Oct 23 22:40:30 2002
#

ERROR: An unexpected error occurred while performing the requested
operation on the "host" ACL at "reliant:/". This is probably
the result of a failed Remote Procedure Call to a daemon, a
failure in the SD ACL manager, or the improper removal of the
ACL. If this problem persists, contact your system
administrator.

Suggestions??

1. nslookup your_host_name
2. nslookup your_ip_address
3. /sbin/init.d/swagentd stop
/sbin/init.d/swagentd start

There is some problem with the name resolution.


Thanks

Hi,
Do this,
Kill rpcd daemon and start it again.
#rpcd
Then
#/sbin/init.d/swagentd stop
#/sbin/init.d/swagentd start

Thank you all for your quick responses.

It is working now. Stopping and restarting the daemon fixed it.

Here are the results of your suggestions:

# rpcd
# /sbin/init.d/swagentd stop
The swagentd daemon is stopped.
# /sbin/init.d/swagentd start
Running /usr/lib/sw/mx/configure to reset hostname.
#


# nslookup reliant
Using /etc/hosts on: reliant

looking up FILES
Name: reliant
Address: 192.168.1.10

# nslookup 192.168.1.10
Using /etc/hosts on: reliant

looking up FILES
Name: reliant
Address: 192.168.1.10


I am not completely sure why it needed to reconfigure hostname.
