818.0. "Ambiguous DNS/register error message" by QUIVER::CIARFELLA (Paul Ciarfella dtn 227-3548) Wed Mar 20 1991 12:32

	I had a problem using the 'register' command with a new AM
	that I'm building.  I've figured out what the problem was
	but I'm concerned about the error message displayed by MCC.

	The problem I had was that the DNS namespace
	MCC_<class>_BACKTRANSLATION did not exist on the DNS server.
        When I attempted to use the 'register' command, it failed 
	with the following ambiguous error:
    
	MCC> register concentrator conc1 address 08-00-2b-14-14-7b

	CONCENTRATOR DEGABA_NS:.conc1
	AT 20-MAR-1991 10:52:45

	The requested operation cannot be completed
                      MCC Routine Error = %MCC-W-ENTUNKNOWN, unknown entity:!AD
    
	When I create the DNS namespace it works ok.

	My question:  Is this the error message that is expected or
	should I be seeing a more informative one saying that there is a
	problem with DNS?

	Thanks,

	Paul C

818.1Need a new message code for next releaseTOOK::KWAKWed Mar 20 1991 13:1513
        
	In MCC version 1.1, we don't have a CVR to describe this problem in
	DNS function call.

	We need to introduce a new CVR to tell the problem to the user in a
    	more descriptive way.
    
	This change is planned for V1.2 release.

	Thanks.

	William
