Just a quick wisdom request - I have the Developer edition on a Linux box and want to replace it with Innovator-C; what's the best method to do this? Just untar the new version over the old and run 'ids_install' again, or should I remove the old Dev edition first?

Art, thanks - I've gone for the separate INFORMIXDIR install (just had to change $INFORMIXDIR, $PATH and some paths in $ONCONFIG) and it's come up just fine.

OK looks like some *really* crippling feature exclusions, the most annoying being the unavailability of connecting from one instance to another even on the same box;
e.g.
Set up two instances, inst1_soc and inst2_soc on the same box.
Connect to inst1_soc with dbaccess and then issue an SQL that tries to connect to the second:
SELECT * FROM stores@inst2_soc:customer

This returns "908: Attempt to connect to database server (inst2_soc) failed"
Oddly, there are no relevant messages in the online log.

Although it will allow:
CONNECT TO 'stores@inst2_soc'

Means Innovator-C is not really fit for purpose. Ho-hum.
