- What you are trying ought to work. You must make sure that RMT_NODE, the
- node where the DECnet task is running, is authorized to the Session Manager
- to display to your local node's session (see the Security menu on the
- Session Manager).
-
- Without knowing the contents of your FILE.COM and the exact error message
- number, I can't help you any further.
