26.0. "FT2: Connection refused" by KETJE::SYBERTZ (Marc Sybertz@BRO - 856/7572) Mon Oct 05 1992 19:09

'Unable to connect to console for host ds5500
 Connection refused'

is the message I received ...

There is no trace in the documentation of what you have
to do to initiate the lat port.

On my system, there is of course no getty on it, but
I wonder how does CM assigned the /dev/tty02 to 
the terminal server and port I choosed.
Don't do I have to make a lcp -h /dev/tty02:BRO398:PORT5 ?

Any idea for the 'connection refused' message ?

Thanks,
Marc.

26.1I've had to -h alsoVINO::DBIGELOWInnovate, Integrate, EvaporateMon Oct 05 1992 19:279
    Marc,
    
       In order to get this working, I've had to issue the lcp -h command
    as you have indicated. It would appear as though it should be
    done automatically because this informatiopn is asked for in the 
    editor(s).

26.2You should not need to lcp -hOPG::SIMONTue Oct 06 1992 11:3456
Marc and Dave,

	You should not need to do lcp -h for the port to connect. when adding a 
system you specify the device name /dev/ttyxx in the database. This device must
alreadty exist ( in future we may look at creating the devices if necessary).

When the daemon fires up it should perform the lcp -h on your behalf and set the
information to the server and port names specified in the database.

A way of finding out if the port has allocated the server and port names is to do
an lcp -p /dev/ttyxx. It should show the server and port names. 

As far as the connection refused message is concerned a few stupid questions

Is LAT set up with the group codes for the server?

Are both the server and port group codes correct (i.e. the same as the system)?

Is the port on the server set for remote access?



The only other times we have seen connection refused messages is when the port 
is already connected ( we have a couple f test systems and we forgot to shut one
down.

check on the server that no other thing is connected ( a VCS port for example.

Keep in touch and let me know if any of these fix your problem

Cheers Simon.....

Yup, the daemon does the lcp -h for us.
I saw it using lcp -p.

Indeed, I will have to check the Lat connection.

I will let you know.
Marc.
