AIX'ers:

On prior versions this was a nobrainer either with smit or chlicense.
However, I cannot determine how to accomplish this with version 5.1L.
My system, which "used" to have a 64 seat license, suddenly after a
reboot yesterday, tops out at 2!

No problem I said. Tried chlicense and it was NOT FOUND; tries smit
system environs and nothing is there?

Suggestions please (unhappy users.....).

Check your path, seems I recall some instances of even root not having
the proper path on the initial 5 releases...

What do you mean 'nothing is there' with smit system environs..I would
expect a smitty chlicense to give you the screen to fill out and then
fail if the command can't be found....

I worse comes to worse, check /etc/security/login.cfg and look at the
last stanza. It will have something like:

usw:
shell = '/usr......
maxlogin = 2

change the last operand. You will have to reboot for the change to be effective.

Thanks all who responded. For anyone interested: somehow the license
management software was deleted from our configuration (probably while
trying to clean up). I reinstalled and via smit the "show/change
licenced users" prompt was there. That did it.

Thanks again.
