Thanks Eugene for the advice. You were correct, the IBM seems to fail on nul. So i did something else to fix i created a test.txt file with the word "nul" in there (no quotes). I then replaced the net diag line as below
net diag /status < \test.txt > netdiag.txt and that did it. so now i'm onto the next problem :) Can't seem to find my samba share but i'll work on that now that i can get to this step.

I have exactly the same problem on our IBM xSeries 340. net diag /status requires you to press Enter, and it should process automatically with <nul but it works wrong. I've fixed it by removing <nul and pressing Enter myself. -- Eugene mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ 191276239 ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
