3871.0. "Ftam Gateway fixed length record file fails to copy" by NETRIX::"[email protected]" (Billy O'Connor) Fri Feb 14 1997 06:13

An Gateway access violation occurs when doing a FTAM Gateway copy of certain
structured files. This works fine for the same file using plain FTAM, without
using the Ftam Gateway facility.
The versions of software are as follows:
________________________________________

Remote side is VAX-VMS 6.2, Decnet/OSI 6.3 eco-5, Ftam 3.2-F, OSAK 3.0-L
Local side is  VAX-VMS 6.1, Decnet/OSI 6.3 eco-5, Ftam 3.2-F, OSAK 3.0-L

       Thanks for any thoughts, help Billy O'Connor

This is a known problem with the gateway that has never been fixed.  It's on our
list to fix, but we haven't gotten a round-tuit yet.  If you have any extra
round-tuits, send them our way; in the absence of extra tuits (round, square or
otherwise), please escalate this problem as an IPMT to FTAM engineering.

--Scott

This has been resolved, and the fix will appear in the next release of FTAM with
DECnet-Plus 7.2.
