182.0. "IS TM Conferencing DECnet Centric?" by 26031::ogodhcp-124-96-171.ogo.dec.com::Diaz (Octavio) Fri Feb 21 1997 22:06

It has been asked before but I didn't find an answer. most likely because 
it doesn't work directly TCP to TCP.

I have a W95 PC running MS TCP.

I no longer have a VMS account, my cluster STOWOA is being retired. TM 
Confernecing still work routing through any VMS system with UCX VMS 
system.But I would like to change my DECnet notesfiles addresses to TCP 
and access them directly, since it seems that VMS systems are in a 
downslope.

Can it be done in TM Conferencing or the design is so DECnet centric that 
it's not possible?

It seems to ad a double colon to any kind of addressing combinations I try 
in SETUP. So lets say for:

[email protected]

what do I enter in:

node name:
Conference Files name:

The following doesn't work:

node name:humane.lkg.dec.com
Conference Files name:Internet_tools

Thanks for any replies

I feel like a dumb-ass. I didn't change the check in the routing node.

Also it needs the @ sign before the TCP address.

So to answer my own question is:

Node Name:@humane.lkg.dec.com
Conference name:news-backbone

A tout a l'heur
182.2Doesn't workNETRIX::"[email protected]"Bruno EurichFri Mar 07 1997 14:4320
For me, adding a "@" in front of the node name doesn't work ...

e.g. for Conferencing on Galvia

Using route through mode works OK, but if I disable that and use:

Nodename=galvia.ilo.dec.com (which is reachable via ping)

I get "Connection to galvia.ilo.dec.com failed. Network Object
(Process or Socket Number) does not exist at Remote Node or
Remote Node refused the connection."

If I add a leading "@" to the nodename, the same happens.

Other nodes behave fine configured in the above manner.
A few others don't - any idea on what is wrong ?

Bruno.
