I have noticed that under MCC V1.3 and the oeprations for "set host"
and "telnet" that at least with "set host" I experience some problems
connecting. For certain entities, I select the icon and "set host". A
DECterm window appears, but it disappears immediately. There is an
error message, though it is very quick I think it is:
RMS-F- File syntax error
Some node4's it works, some it doesn't. I have not tried enough IP
nodes to ascertain the behaviour with "telnet".
Anyone know why this is happening?
Thanks,
Dave

You can trace the problem to look at the MCC_SYSTEM:MCC_APPL_MCCBASE.DEF file Change the "set host" into a command file. In the command file do a write sys$output "''p1'" followed by a wait. Youl'l see exactly what is passed as argument to the set host command. Another DECmcc user. Dominique. | |||||

Dominique -
Thanks for the tip. I tried your suggestion and have found that the
problem is that on certain node4s, the DECnet address is returned
instead of the name, ie. 1.35 instead of PHCOMM. Further
investigation shows that if a node4 was registered under MCC V1.1, the
node number is returned, it it was registered under V1.2, the name is
returned and operation is just fine. I also came across a V1.1 node4
that returns an error:
003 29-JUL-1993 11:30:31.08 no corresponding entity instance exists
Any developers know why this is happening w/ V1.1 registered entities?
I suppose I can provide a workaround for the ones that return the node
number, but the other one is just a problem to be resolved.
Thanks,
Dave
