9399.0. "DLPI cannot find PPA for PBXNP-AA Token Ring" by CSC32::C_JACOBSON () Fri Apr 04 1997 18:45

    Hello,
    
    A customer has had a DLPI application since V3.2C working fine
    which uses the code snippet example from the Network Programmer's
    Guide 2.5 "Identifying Available PPAs".
    
    Since upgrading to 4.0B, this portion fails to show
    the PBXNP-AA Token Ring Adaptor on their Alphas.
    
    He is in a bind now since relying on this code to show
    all the available PPAs. Is there an alternative method
    since he has a software release deadline next week.
    
    Thanks in advance,
    Chris Jacobson

9399.1Easy to fix (kernel patch)SMURF::GILLUMKirt GillumMon Apr 07 1997 14:165
    
    This is a known problem with DLI, and it was fixed for our next release
    (due to ship in Sept/Oct.).  Escalate the problem, and it would be easy
    to backport the fix into v40b.
