- # Help!
- #
- # I am having problems with the TCP/IP transport for DECwindows.
- # On a VAXstation 4000-VLC, VMS V5.5 and MultiNet V3.1 Rev A,
- # it refuses to attach to the TCP/IP transport and gives a rather
- # odd (IMO) error in the DECW$SERVER_0_ERROR.LOG file.
- #
- # From the error log:
- #
- # 10-SEP-1992 22:37:16.6 Hello, this is the X server
- # This is the VMS DECwindows Motif server V1.1-911012
- # compiled on Oct 12 1991 at 08:55:08
- # Dixmain address=1732c
- # Server is running in bug-compatible mode
- # Now attach all known txport images
- # %DECW-I-ATTACHED, transport DECNET attached to its network
- # %DECW-W-ATT_FAIL, failed to attach transport TCPIP
- # -SYSTEM-W-ENDOFFILE, end of file
- #
- # [it then goes on with the the usual font loading, etc.]
- #
-
- This error is caused by the value pointed to by the logical
- UCX$INET_HOST not being in MULTINET:HOSTS.LOCAL. Add it to HOSTS.LOCAL,
- recompile host tables, re-install the database, restart the master
- server and then restart the X server. It should clear up the problem.
