Upgrade from 10.20 to 11.0

[Ray Bell]

I did an upgrade and it's seems to have gone successful, but now I'm stuck with some problem. When any other users except root tried to ftp to another server they get "Unknown server error." What strange a user can ftp if they used the i.p. address of that user, so I have check ny nsswithc.con files and it has to look into the files first. Also from another server a user can ftp to that server and send files successful. Does anyone have any solutions or ideals why this problem is occuring?

I'm also getting a fatal error trying to run glance. I remove the 10.20 copy and install the 11.0 version. The error I get is a mi_get_pq call failed. Does anyone have an ideals on this problem as well? Should I remove glance and re-install it again?

For your Unknown server for ftp, this indicates a DNS problem. Is you /etc/resolv.conf file setup correctly ? Ive found a refernece to this error being caused by an old bad entry in the DNS file, see this link;

As for the glance problem, cant find your error anywhere. Are you running an uptodate patch bundle (GR bundle from June or Sep 2000?) and a newer version of glance;
C.02.40.00 ?

If this works for root, my initial suspicion is incorrect permissions on a file like /etc/hosts or maybe nsswitch.conf???

That is if the message is
"Unknown server error"
as opposed to
"Unknown server error"

As to your second problem mi_get_pq call failed : get the latest perf patch installed :

PHSS_18543 + dependencies !

I beleive there'sa dependency on a certain hp-ux patch level for pstat()

Another way to check a kernel without actually trying to run the
performance tools is using the following command:

what /stand/vmunix | grep pstat

If there is no output from this command, then the kernel is unpatched
and a recent Extension Pack should be loaded. Otherwise, any date
string for pstat.c more recent than 97/11/12 indicates that the running
kernel already has the patch level which should avoid the problem.
