Before you migrate, review the following paragraphs which outline co-existence issues.

Before Installing

Disable the autostart feature of LAN Manager 1.x:

  1. Edit the file:

    /etc/rc.config.d/lmx

  2. Set LMX=0 to disable autostart.

Co-existence of LAN Manager 1.x and Advanced Server/9000

If you choose to keep both products on your system at the same time, be aware of the following:

Both versions can be installed on one system, but only one version can be running. Make sure you shutdown one version, including NetBIOS, before starting the other version.

Advanced Server/9000 does not contain on-line manual pages. If you type man net, information about LAN Manager 1.x is displayed. For Advanced Server/9000, use the net help command.

Alternate Using LAN Manager 1.x and Advanced Server/9000

If you alternate usage between LAN Manager version 1.x and Advanced Server/9000, make sure that you are using the proper net command version. You may wish to establish symbolic links from /usr/bin/net to the appropriate product executable.

  • The LAN Manager version 1.x product installs its net command into the file/opt/lmx/lanman/bin/net and creates a symbolic link from /usr/bin/net to /opt/lmx/lanman/bin/net.

  • The Advanced Server/9000 product installs its net command into the file /opt/asu/lanman/bin/net and establishes a symbolic link from /usr/bin/net to /opt/asu/lanman/bin/net.

When using LAN Manager 1.x:

ln -s /opt/lmx/lanman/bin/net /usr/bin/net

When using Advanced Server/9000:

ln -s /opt/asu/lanman/bin/net /usr/bin/net

The following procedures describe how to alternate starting LAN Manager 1.x and Advanced Server/9000.

To Restart LAN Manager 1.x After Running Advanced Server/9000:

  1. Log into the system as root.

  2. Stop the Advanced Server/9000 server if running:

    /opt/asu/lanman/bin/net stop server

  3. To stop the NetBIOS daemon:

    /opt/lmu/netbios/bin/nbutil -N stop

  4. Verify that the netdemon process is no longer running. Type:

    ps -ef | grep netdemon

    If a netdemon process exists, you must explicitly kill that process:

    kill -9 xxxx

    where xxxx is the pid of the netdemon process.

  5. Start the LAN Manager 1.x server. Type:

    /opt/lmx/lanman/bin/net start server

To Restart Advanced Server/9000 After Running 1.x:

  1. Log into the system as root.

  2. Stop the LAN Manager 1.x server if running.

    /opt/lmx/lanman/bin/net stop server

  3. Stop the LAN Manager 1.x NetBIOS daemon:

    ps -ef |grep NetBIOS_Daemon kill -9 xxxx

    Where xxxx is the pid of the NetBIOS_Daemon process.

  4. Start RFC NetBIOS:

    /opt/lmu/netbios/bin/nbutil -N start

  5. Start the Advanced Server/9000 server:

    /opt/asu/lanman/bin/net start server
