Hi Chris,

Just test this command on ur master

*bpclclients* -allunique -noheader | grep $client_name > anyfilename

The next command, that I am not sure is

updatedb ORACLE -ClientList anyfilename

It will prompt for confirmation and you are done. Follow the steps Carl has
given u to verify ur installation.

Regards,
BIJU
