The messages broadcast that way are bad and are never seen by receivers across the network. As an example of the failure, I have a node 160.101.95.109 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. It works fine. If I try to isolate the traffic to the 95-net by using a subnet mask of 255.255.224.0, it does not work. The same mask works fine on an HP-UX machine. It also fails on the VAX. System is running Alpha VMS v.6.1, UCX v.4.0. I have downloaded patches but do not see any mention of subnet, netmask or broadcast in the readme. Should I patch the software? Do you know of this problem?

Louise, I wanted to drop you a note about the UCX issue you reported to the ALPHA developer support account. I have read your note and have not seen this behavior. I will investigate for you the problem. What patches have you downloaded and if I read your note correctly, you have not installed these. Is this correct. regards, john talatinian ALpha Developer Support Digital Equipment Corp. | |||||

Hi, Thank you for your note. I have pure v.4.0 on both the alpha and the vax exhibiting this symptom. Yesterday I downloaded patches from the service site but I have not yet installed them. I want to do backups first. Louise | |||||
