Hi, I have 2 machines HP ProLiant DL380 G5 and I've installed the OS SuSe Linux server 10 On both machines if I make a "uname-a" gives me the following: M-linux03 Linux 2.6.16.46-0.12-bigsmp # 1 SMP Thu May 17 14:00:09 UTC 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU / Linux But when it comes to execute the command "who" in the machine linux01 gives me the following: oper pts / 1 Oct 15 07:36 (m-lin. *****. s) dsof pts / 2 Oct 15 08:37 (m-rsm. *****. s) dsof pts / 3 Oct 15 08:45 (m-rsm. *****. s) oper pts / 4 Oct 15 15:19 (m-mgl. *****. s) and the machine gives me linux02: root: 0 Oct 2 17:06 I have tried to see that I have a different machine and another, and I can not see it Do you like it you can tell me who that leaves as the machine linux01?

Can we assume same shell, actually are they exact same installs? Do find for who first. See if both are same place and same command. Copy who command to funny machine and try again. See also alias files. "Best Practices", Event viewer, host file, perfmon, antivirus, anti-spyware, Live CD's, backups, are in my top 10
