1831.0. "line FWA-0, device busy on 2100/V6.1" by ANOHAC::COMFORT (The river keeps a talkin') Wed Oct 11 1995 11:09

    
    Hi,
    
    We have all the bits for DEFPA on OVMS 6.1 on Alpha 2100.  Everything
    seems to funciton, but an interesting item has come up.
    
    When the system is booted and DECnet starts, we get an error message
    about the device being busy and DECnet fails to start.  Once the system
    is up and you log in, an ncp set line fwa-0 state on will yield the
    error message for the first couple times we try to start the line. 
    Usually on the third try, the line will start and DECnet comes up.  Has
    anyone seen this before?
    
    Thanks,

>> Has anyone seen this before?
    
Yes.  I don't remember what the problem was. It sounds like you figured out
the workaround.
