1809.0. "HP OpenView polling under Hubwatch stack" by SNOC02::CALEYJASON (The truth although interesting, is irrelevant.) Wed Dec 21 1994 23:00

    Hi,
    
    This is an **Extremely** urgent query. Any help would be greatly
    appreciated!
    
    I am running Hubwatch For Windows 3.1 under HP OpenView 7.2
    
    However, polling and traps do not work.
    
    Note 27 of the README.TXT file states that IP Polling only works on
    Winsock stacks supporting raw sockets and ICMP.
    
    My Question is : Do we support this and if not, what is the
    workaround?
    
    regards,
    
    Jason Caley,
    Network Products Business.

1809.1just use their stackNAC::FORRESTWed Dec 28 1994 17:187
    I would suggest that you get HP OV running on the stack with which it 
    ships, from FTP, I believe. Our stack supports ICMP to give you the 
    PING capability, but we may have a different API than does the FTP 
    stack. I don't know if the Pathworks stack supports raw sockets.
    
    Since HP makes nonstandard calls, I  think your safest bet is to use 
    the stack they provide.
1809.2Thanks. Am trying that at the momentSNOC02::CALEYJASONThe truth although interesting, is irrelevant.Wed Dec 28 1994 22:2913
    Thanks jack.
    
    Still having heaps of problems getting PC-TCP to work with the Xirocom
    packet drivers. I will try a desktop platform with a DE205 in it and
    see how it goes.
     
    Regards,
    
    Jason.
    
    P.S: Ed Buzzell had it going at the Academy. I'd like Ed to get in
    contact asap.
