- 4. _K_n_o_w_n__P_r_o_b_l_e_m_s__a_n_d__W_o_r_k_a_r_o_u_n_d_s
-
- This chapter describes the known problems with the 6.5
- sysadmdesktop.
-
- 4.1 _C_l_o_g_i_n
-
- +o The user can start entering the login name before the
- account images appears. Key strokes may not echo but
- they are read, so login can be completed before all
- images appear.
-
- 4.2 _D_i_s_k
-
- +o The Disk tasks should not be run while fx or dvhtool is
- also running.
-
- 4.3 _N_e_t_w_a_r_e__f_i_l_e_s_y_s_t_e_m__s_i_z_e__r_e_p_o_r_t_i_n_g
-
- +o Netware filesystem size reporting in the Filesystem
- Manager does not work properly.
-
- 4.4 _D_O_S__a_n_d__M_a_c_i_n_t_o_s_h__H_a_r_d__d_i_s_k_s
-
- +o The system administration tools do not recognize DOS or
- Macintosh hard drives (they do recognize DOS and
- Macintosh removable media devices). A workaround is to
- manually mount these hard drives. See the mkfp(1M) and
- mount(1M) man pages for details.
-
- 4.5 _I_S_D_N
-
- +o ISDN line status should not be used remotely. In a
- remote login session, the ISDN line status window is
- displayed on the remote window rather than the local
- window. So ISDN line status should only be used
- locally.
-
- 4.6 _P_P_P
-
- +o The /etc/ppp.conf file uses '#' as the beginning of a
- comment. Anything after '#' is taken as comment. Since
- '#' is also a valid character used by PPP, a '\' is
- placed infront of '#' to distinguish the difference
- between a comment and a real character. The PPP set up
- tasks doesn't automatically insert '\' infront of '#'.
- The user should enter the '\' when using the
- configuration task, e.g., 'my#name' should be entered
- as 'my\#name'.

- 4.7 _C_h_a_n_g_e__P_e_r_m_i_s_s_i_o_n_s
-
- +o The Change Permissions tool will only display NIS user
- names for users that are explicitly listed in
- /etc/passwd in an entry such as your system using the
- plus sign ('+') on a line by itself will not add any
- users to the Users menu in the Change Permissions tool.
- This problem has been assigned bug #556030 in Silicon
- Graphics' internal bug tracking system.
-
- +o If there is a large number of users on the system, the
- Users menu can become so long that some entries are not
- visible or selectable with the mouse. This problem has
- been assigned bug #534666 in Silicon Graphics' internal
- bug tracking system.
-
- 4.8 _S_y_s_t_e_m__M_a_n_a_g_e_r
-
- +o If the colormap is full when System Manager is
- launched, the category links (Overview, About this
- System, etc.) on the left hand side are invisible
- (white on a white background). The links are still
- active. If you encounter this problem, you should
- close System Manager and at least one other colormap-
- intensive application (e.g. Netscape and FrameMaker)
- and then restart System Manager. This problem has been
- assigned bug #553084 in Silicon Graphics' internal bug
- tracking system.
-
- 4.9 _E_Z_s_e_t_u_p
-
- +o Clicking multiple times on buttons that launch the
- Secure System, Network Setup or Add User tasks results
- in an error dialog advising the user to contact their
- system administrator. This dialog box is not necessary
- and should be ignored. (SCR 562450)
-
- +o Under certain conditions, exit from EZSetup will result
- in an error dialog being displayed that says
- "CGIOutput2.html not found." This dialog box is not
- necessary and should be ignored. (SCR 572507)
