setting up nim with pull mode

ok wmp.. you won! :-)      as always

In order to create the mksysb of my clients (as you said in my last question) how:

do I setup nim side to connect to client using nimsh with openssl (rsh is not allow here)
do I setup the clients to work in the nim enviromnet, shoud I starta ny daemon?

As I told you I need all mysysb of all clients updated every week.

I'm  testing again to create the SPOT from the mksysb to install a new LPAR..
Thanks WMP
Strange "workaround"!

I can remember old 4.2 days and even back then NIM did not like its filesystems in /etc/exports, it insisted on doing all the NFS stuff on its own instead.
Funny that this behaviour is called "new" in your article!

If you do employ NIM it's very, very good practice letting it do ALL the work instead of playing around with homemade tricks.

Thx for the points!
