3429.0. "900TM printing unwanted broadcasts" by KERNEL::PHILLIPSN (Neil Phillips) Fri Jan 31 1997 10:15

I have a customer with a DECserver900TM, running NAS v1.5 BL95D-34.
printing from VMS 6.2, the LTA is setup with nobroadcast.

When the systems administrator sends a broadcast (reply /all),
the message comes out on the printer.  

The customer claims to have had the same problem on a DECserver90, and 
this was fixed by a patch.

Any ideas

    We used to hear that one a lot back when my team took Decserver
    printing calls. The customer was always adamant that
    there was only one LTA mapped to that Decserver port and it was
    set nobroadcast. Some even hinted of a magic patch that would
    correct this. They were always amazed when they finally found the other
    LTA device mapped to that same Decserver port, (either on that same
    system or another node) and not set nobroadcast.

Thanks for the info. This was 2 LTA's mapped to the same port as you suggested.

Thanks again
