524.0. "Limit on useraccounts from ClearVISN ASM" by NETRIX::"[email protected]" (Ellen) Mon Mar 10 1997 09:33

Just to let you know, 
trouble adding useraccounts from ClearVISN ASM

DNAS ver 2.0
ClearVISN Access Server Manager ver 1.0
WIN95 

A Customer is using ASM to add useraccounts to a DECserver 90M. 
From the Configuration TAB he picks number 5. The Server Security 
dialog box shows up and from here he specifies Local as the Security 
Method. He now add a useraccount to the DECserver and afterwards push 
the �Write� button to modify the configuration of the DECserver with 
new values. 

When one gets to add useraccount number 34 ,about, inclusive passwords 
etc. the software turns up with an error-information box:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
ERROR
The application's network receive buffer has been exceeded before
expected data received.

Contact Digital Equipment Corporation

Task execution will be terminated.
------------------------------------------------------------------
From the telnet-information window, one can see it stops at 
--> reading user accounts ...

I have reproduced the limit at my site. Are we missing something ? 
Is there anyway to get around the failure ?. Have told the customer 
how to add useraccounts from the DECserver Console but that is not very
smart !!

524.1Error is really "out of NVRAM space"?IROCZ::D_NELSONDave Nelson LKG1-3/A11 226-5358Mon Mar 10 1997 11:0713

Do you mean to say that the customer has sucessfully added 33 users and is
attempting to add the 34th?  The number of UserAccounts that can be stored
in NVRAM is limited.  Depending on the number of characters in the names and
passwords, you might expect to get about 30.

Dave

There is a new version of ASM:  V2.1a. It is available on the Web at:
http://www.networks.digital.com:80/dr/hubs/servers/software/servr-mn.html
With V2.1a I was able to add up to 40 local user accounts (I didn't try to add
any more). Keep in mind that there is a limited amount of storage available
on DECservers for local user accounts. The local user accounts were designed to
perhaps support a small office.
