Hi,
I have an HP C3000 which every time it boots has one failure. It
seems to pass the configuration of some of the sort of 100baseT
interface, but fails on another. This is odd as there is only one
ethernet connection to the machine. It has never had any others. The
system has had very little configuration - I think this problem might
have existed from when HP-UX 11 was installed.

Looking in /etc/rc.log I see:


----------------------------
Initializing Network Tracing and Logging...
Done.

Configure HP Ethernet interfaces
Output from "/sbin/rc2.d/S320hpether start":
----------------------------

Configure HP 100BT interfaces
Output from "/sbin/rc2.d/S323hpbase100 start":
----------------------------
ERROR: missing file "/etc/rc.config.d/hpbase100conf"
"/sbin/rc2.d/S323hpbase100 start" FAILED

Configure HP SPP 100BT interfaces
Output from "/sbin/rc2.d/S333hpsppci100 start":
----------------------------
No 100BT device configured in system (btlan6)
"/sbin/rc2.d/S333hpsppci100 start" SKIPPED

Configure LAN interfaces
Output from "/sbin/rc2.d/S340net start":
----------------------------


The 100baseT ethernet conection works fine. Obviously it's reporting
the file /etc/rc.config.d/hpbase100conf is missing, but I've no idea
what is supposed to go in that file.

cp /usr/newconfig/etc/rc.config.d/hpbase100conf \
/etc/rc.config.d/hpbase100conf

Thanks, I'll try that tommorow when I next run the HP.

PS, did you intend 'one' to be 'once' in the last word of your quote
about multi-tasking?
