8174.3problem with multiple joind'sRHETT::LAROSEThu Feb 06 1997 13:2422
    This took a while since customer is a DEC SI guy who is a moving
    target; very busy person.  He found the time to give the following
    feedback:
    
    "I want to thank you for the help with the RIS server setup for 
    UNIX 4.0. I finally got the server working. I was uncommenting 
    the joind daemon entry in the /etc/inetd.conf file ( it took the 
    place of the bootpd daemon), but, unkown to me, the system had 
    already configured it to come up automatically for DHCP.
    This resulted in multiple copies of the joind daemon coming up &
    stepping on each other. What obscured the problem was the fact 
    that I could transmit the 3.2c ris environment using the same 
    setup in 4.0a- which still used the joind daemon!
    
    Oh well, what can I say.
    
    Thanks once again!!!
