Cindy, probably you are right. Unfortunately, my search in the bug database didn't reveal this bug, because it is not accessible outside of SUN. It is nv103. Strangely, though, on one of my nv103, dtpad does come up as root, on another one it doesn't, it shows the same message that it greets th

I have a situation where I need to do Flash Archive, and the local storage is not enough. But I cannot use NFS due to security reason, I cannot deploy Secure NFS also, and the available connectivity is only SSH. Therefore I am using Sys V IPC named pipes to capture the target file into pipe, to
