3881.0. "Corrupt net$config.dat file" by CXO3W1::M_SHELDON () Thu Feb 20 1997 15:53
I have a customer who's OpenVMS V7.1 Alpha system came with
DECnet-Plus V7.1 installed. He configured it for use with the
LOCAL naming option, and it works just fine until a reboot
when sys$node is now not defined and the node forgets its name
in NCL.
I have traced it down to a "bogus" sys$system:net$config.dat
file being written every time the NCL>rename new name LOCAL:.PCS04
command is issued. His looks like the following:
$ dump sys$system:net$config.dat

We tried removing DECNET_OSI, reinstalling it from CD, and rebooting
but the problem is still there. We tried deleting the
net$config.dat file, renaming the node, and running a full
net$configure but his net$acp ??? process wants to write
this bogus file. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated !
Thanks

| Strange. Yes, that is indeed a corrupt NET$CONFIG.DAT file.
The only thing I can think of is some error in the LOCAL registration.
Unfortunately, I am not well enough versed in cdi to be able to tell
you which magic registration files to delete, but I suspect that you
need to delete something else that's corrupt that a simple
de-installation of DECnet/OSI wouldn't do for you.
Any other suggestions?
