Sybase IQ uses networking software whenever the client and server components are installed on different systems.
Verify that the network is configured properly by using this command:
% telnet host
where host is the computer you are currently using. For example, if the host is called “tahoe”, enter:
% telnet tahoe
This should give you a login prompt for the same machine you are currently using, for example:
login:
If telnet does not allow you to log
in, there is a problem with your network. Ask your vendor technical
support organization for assistance.
Check that you can log in over the network, then log out.
Use either rsh to open a remote shell or ping the system from another machine. For example, to check the system “tahoe”:
% rsh tahoe
% ping tahoe
