i-Planet Administration Guide

Modifying the netcon.rc File

If you have more than 1,000 end users, you must modify the netcon.rc file on the i-Planet server. If you do not modify this file, NetCon will be unable to come up.

To Modify the netcon.rc File
  1. Modify the file /usr/bin/local/bin/netcon.pc on the i-Planet server so that the line /usr/local/bin/netserv -c -a... includes the option -b 9000.

    The line will now look something like this:

    /usr/local/bin/netserv -b 9000 -c -a... 
    
  2. Reboot the i-Planet server.

  3. If you have "several thousands of end users," the NetCon service will require some time to come up.

  4. Type the following to verify that the NetCon service is up:


    ps -ef | grep netserv | grep -v grep | wc -l
    

    If the return value is not 1, the NetCon service is up. Otherwise you must wait until it is up.
