Yes, Greg, I would start over.  Who knows what else is missing.  But there
should be an lrf for every NetView daemon.
Or did you install the client?

With the problems you have had, I would suggest a call to Support
(1-800-TIVOLI-8) and see if one of our install specialists can help.  Then
you can discuss what s in the error logs and such and perhaps get around
some of these stumbling blocks.

James,
       This is a new install, although it is really the second iteration of
a new install. We had problems the first time around  when the framework
object for NetViewServer was not properly defined and the ICON for NetView
was not created. We tried to use the wln xxxxxxxxxxxxxx and then the
wrefresh xxxxxxxxxxx commands as suggested in the release notes.  This did
not help us so we decided to try to install the Server code again. Before
reinstalling I ran the  cleanup script in  the MUSTSEE directory of the CD.
Maybe that was a mistake ? Anyway I went into the /usr/OV/lrf directory and
found only one .lrf file  it was nvwebd.lrf.  I added it using the ovaddobj
command so atleast the /usr/OV/conf/ovsuf file exists now . There are
obviously missing lrf files. Would it be advisable to just deinstall
NetView and start over ?

Thankyou
          Greg Adams
