5448.0. "FTP bug? in V4.X but not in V2.0 or V3.3" by TAMIR::IZAK (Computers,all they think of is HEX) Thu Apr 17 1997 11:45

Hello,

I perform the following on a V4.0 and V4.1:

	$ cre /name/parent=LNM$SYSTEM_DIRECTORY test
	$ def /table=test help sys$help
	$ def /table=LNM$system_DIRECTORY LNM$FILE_DEV -
	    LNM$PROCESS,LNM$JOB,LNM$GROUP,TEST,LNM$SYSTEM,DECW$LOGICAL_NAMES
	$ sh log help
	       "HELP" = "SYS$HELP" (TEST)
	1  "SYS$HELP" = "SYS$SYSROOT:[SYSHLP]" (LNM$SYSTEM_TABLE)

	$ ftp my-own-machine
	220 laflaf FTP Server (Version V4.1-12) Ready.
	Connected to laflaf.
	Name (laflaf:izak):
	331 Username IZAK requires a Password.
	Password:
	230 User logged in.
	FTP> cd help
	550 Failed to set default directory to HELP
	FTP>

The same DOES work on a UCX V2.0 and UCX V3.3. Can anyone comment on this?

Thanks,
Izak

    I have never seen the usage of a logical name table as a `device' style
    logical.  I have seen search lists, but I don't think this is the way
    to do it.
    
    The newest FTP server changes (fixes) a lot of things, some of which
    are the handling of searchlists and rooted logicals.  You may want to
    try that PAT kit (pre-ECO).

Yes, indeed the new PAT7 does work correctly as expected.

Thank you,
