I saw it long ago... between the date, time, and text fields there
     were tabs rather than blank spaces and it pushed the end of the line
     past 80 columns which caused it to "look like" there were blank lines
     yet it was actually just lines longer than 80 cols so the screen would
     wrap the line...

Hello all,

I'm running ADSM client 3.1.0.6 on AIX 4.2.1.
The server is at 3.1.2.0.
I'm having trouble running the admin client in batch mode.
When I issue the command
dsmadmc -id=.... -password=.... q actlog
from my AIX Korn shell looks different then running the client in normal
mode.
I see a lot of blank lines when running in batchmode. Every line is
followed by a blank line. Anyone seen this behavior before?
I see this happen on all my 3.1.0.6 client machines.
The 3.1.0.3 client works fine. I think it began with the 3.1.0.5 client
version.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
