i hve come across a rs 600 (model 150) and i am in a need of
assistance.

I am a bit of a newbie when it comes to unix ie. i haven't got a clue.
This unix server i have been donated from a company gone bust doesn't
have a graphics card in it so i cant connect a monitor to it:

Q1. How do i get to see what is happening on the screen without
purchasing a card?

Is it possible? I have tried connecting it to my xp pro machine using
the com ports and using hyperterminal but i dont really know what i'm
supposed to do.

Q2. Can anyone help me? i'm young and helpless. a reasonably solid
explanation of how to get a visual of what the computer is doing would
be great.

Q3. i am only 16 and i like CAD and web development. Therefore can
anyone tell me what uses i may have with this machine?


Please please help me (i already tried writing to jim will fix it but
no response)

If i get some good hel i will be willing to send you an invite to get
a gmail account. Or i can give you some webspace, i have a large
resellers account.


Thanks Alot Lee

OK, Lee,

either you are a spammer looking for email addresses or bit of simple
minded. But, I'll give you a chance.

That's a good idea. You don't need to change any setting of hypertrm.
Just connect to the port and swith on the 150.

We surely will get this to work.

Suppose the machine is a 43P-150. You could use the box running AIX for
educational and testing because it's rather old and not really fast. But
just to run it for a simple web server and learning how AIX works it
will do fine. But this will place you in need of a AIX license. Usually
the license is connected to the machine and maybe the company that
donated it to you have left it to you. Otherwise you could run linux on
it but I have not tried this yet.

The CAD thing is a little strange for me. I liked things oither then CAD
when I was 16 ?!?

This is a newsgroup, OK! Anyone here will help you if he can without any
reward. Otherwise things have dramatically changed since I was online
last night.
