5304.1If you find outLADDIE::TIBBERTLee Tibbert, DTN 226-6115Fri Mar 07 1997 17:3012
If you find out, please let me know...

I've seen that message a couple of time, usually while setting
up new systems.  When I got the systems correctly configured,
the message when away.  I suspect that I eventually set things
up so that BIND would find the local host name. At least, I think
that message is saying  "I could not find the local host name in DNS".

Now why it does not say that directly is another matter...

5304.2bind with "%UCX-S-NFS_SUBNAM ..."PADNOM::CHEMINANTFri Apr 18 1997 09:2522
    
    It seems this message appears with the $UCX SH PROXY command,
    when :
    
        some proxy records are non-dynamic, and some others are dynamic
        for a same VMS-Username (ie. a record proxy is defined for 
        a VMS-Username with multiple Hostnames)
        These proxy records appear to be non-dynamic, 
        either when the "%UCX-S-NFS_SUBNAM, Substitute hostname ..."
        message is written into the UCX$NFS_logfile.log (Cf. Notes 4288.1)
        either when the value of the logical name UCX$NFS_xxxx_HOSTS is
        less than number of the hosts set for a record proxy. 
    
    
    More, when the bind Resolver is enabled, it appears that the display
    of the '$UCX SH PROXY' takes a long time around these proxy records.
    Sometimes, it appears that, in this case, the record proxy  is
    displayed as "ON?"

    I hope this could help you.
    Best regards.

5304.3Thank youLADDIE::TIBBERTLee Tibbert, DTN 226-6115Fri Apr 18 1997 13:2115
Gait,

	Thank you for the information.  I'll file it
away for when I get some time to work in this area.

Yes, there are delays when NFS looks up unknown nodes
in DNS and has to wait for DNS to time out. The first
delay is pretty much unavoidable. Unfortunately,
the current algorithm can, I believe, repeat failing
lookups, possibly many times.

I'd love to see this entire proxy area re-worked someday.

5304.4IPMT ?PADNOM::CHEMINANTMon Apr 21 1997 04:263
    Is it necessary to you that I submit an IPMT level 3 ?
    Best regards.
    Gait.
5304.5Yes, pleaseLADDIE::TIBBERTLee Tibbert, DTN 226-6115Tue Apr 22 1997 13:219
An IPMT, even a level 3, would raise the probability
of this getting done.  It would formally put it in
the queue of the new NFS maintainer and get it
out of my overloaded 'to do someday' list.

Thanks,

Lee
