Details

Abstract: This script uses components of ConsoleOne for Linux and the rconj for Windows to run rconj on Linux

How to use this script
1. Download and install ConsoleOne for Linux (see http://download.novell.com)
2. Make a directory ./rconj.
• Unzip /sys/java_ins/rconj.zip from a NetWare 5.1 CD into ./rconj
• Unzip /nw51sp4/sys/java_ins/rconj.zip from NetWare 5.1 SP4 into ./rconj
• If your servers need an updated rconag6 use the resulting system directory to patch them. Otherwise delete ./rconj/system abd ./rconj/java as they're not needed.
3. Revise this script setting the values for RCONJ, C1, and MYJAVA as needed
• RCONJ should point at the ./rconj directory you made in step 2.
• C1 should point at the root of the ConsoleOne installation from step 1.
• MYJAVA should point at a good JRE. You probably installed one as part of step 1.
4. Run this script and enjoy your freedom.

Reader Comments

• A very simple process, and a great help!
• Really cool. One note: if you want to get it work with the RCONJ from NW6.0 or greater you have to modify the com.novell.application.rconsolej.RConsoleJ to com.novell.application.securerconsolej.RConsoleJApplication
• Nice to know. Where's the one for windoze? As a note there is an RPM now available for Red Carpet to install RConJ.
• Works great.
