- We have a single 425t on an ethernet, which is routed to the rest
- of our extensive internet on two ends of the wire, one being a Cisco
- AGS+ and the other a Proteon P4100. We have removed the ringcard
- from the machine, and are using the ethernet port only. At times,
- the machine works just fine, albeit a little slow. It runs an
- llbd, glbd, and ns_helper. Occasionally (quite often now), when the
- machine boots up, it registers no network number. I've even gone so
- far as to run the following script at boot time before tcp services
- are started:
-
- #!/bin/sh
- (/etc/netsvc -net 29cf2 ) > /dev/console
- (/etc/netsvc -a ) > /dev/console
- (/etc/rtsvc -dev ETH802.3_DIO -net 29cf2 -noroute ) > /dev/console
-
- It's worked before like this. Sometimes it doesn't. I've removed
- the `node_data/hint_file and rebooted it several times. Once in a
- great while now the node is happy and registers it's proper network
- of 29cf2, but usually doesn't (it sometimes when you are logged onto
- the machine and do a bldt it replies 29cf2.341c8, but lately it just
- responds 341c8). When the machine gets into this state, I can pst
- it, but not crp (object not found error). I must telnet in then.
- When I'm on the machine, I can bldt other machines in my internet.
- When I try an lcnode, I get this:
- ?(lcnode) Node 341C8 did not respond - request denied by local node (OS/network)
-
- Can anybody help me out with this perplexing problem????
