4579.0. "how to register a PC/DECNET in DECMCC ?" by MARS03::THOMAS () Fri Feb 19 1993 12:26

	I didn't succeed to register a PC DOS with PATHWORKS (DECNET) FOR DOS
V4.1 in DECMCC.

	Previously, i loaded NML as a TSR and after i could use:

	NCP TELL "PCnode" command

	to do remote management function in the PC.

	I saw that when i ask to register the PC, 2 DECNET links exist between
the PC and the DECMCC station.

	Does anyone try/succeed in registering PC/DECNET in DECMCC ?

	Thanks for the answers.

	Regards,

	Bernard

4579.1Just did NML and it worked.PTOVAX::DANZAKPittsburgher �Fri Feb 19 1993 14:106
    I just did a NML at the C: prompt and MCC was able to see it and
    register it....if that helps....

4579.2Be sure to UNLOAD NML to save your memory.CUJO::HILLDan Hill-Net.Mgt.-Customer ResidentThu Feb 25 1993 01:0016
    NML takes up about 25K of 640K memory, if my memory servers me.  Your
    PC users might get a bit upset if you keep NML loaded.  Once
    registered, type NML/U from the DOS prompt to unload NML.
    
    Now, once the node is registered, you can set up a DECnet remote sink
    on a router node in the same area as the PCs.  You can monitor DECnet
    events via the routers and sink them to the MCC station.
    
    By assigning targets, you can then have the PC icons change color.
    
    Without a TSR (Terminate and Stay Resident) agent, such as NML, on the
    PC, you can't get much more than that.
    
    By the way, you can register the PC using the STATION AM.

    Be sure to use Pathworks V4.2 which includes a patch to fix a problem
    with NML.

    RE .3
    
    Are you sure the 4.2 is needed ?
    
    I knew the 4.1a was sufficient, is it not true ?

4579.54.1A is okHADRES::KRAUSEEuropean NewProductEngineer for MCCMon Mar 08 1993 04:464
4.1A included the fix and therefore is sufficient. But 4.2 is
the latest and greatest...

    	Yes i agree. The customer used PATHWORKS V4.1. We did the 4.1A
    upgrade and now it is working.
    
    	Bye
