Hi CMU-Teker !
Three weeks ago I read about problem with TALK program. We have the same
problems. When user in our VAX runs TALK, gives the error:
 %PAS-F-STRASGLEN, string assignment length error
And if user from another site use TALK to our user, I must then stop TALK
server, because it slows VMS system.
Does anybody has a clue ?
Thanks in advance. Sincerely			Magda Smolenova

   Wow !  Thanks for the quick response (Bob Marshall).  He suggested that
I comment out the WKS line and use the TELNET_SERVICE variable.  I am happy to
report that it worked.

Welll I have the same problem and tried the same solution and it didn't 
work. 8-{.  Could this be an example of Unix consistancies? (even within
the same vendor?)

I'm running: HP-UX A.B7.02 B 9000/832

I am new at this as far as CMU goes.  I am trying to create a tcp/ip client
on a Micro Vax II which has the CMU software running on it.
I have a copy of The Joy of Tek V6.6 and I would like to use things like
NET$GTHST, NET$OPEN, NET$CLOSE, NET$SEND, & NET$RECEIVE.
I am trying to write the program in "C".  So I am wondering if there are
any include (*.h) files and what has to be linked with it to make it work.
Please reply by E-mail because I don't read this group except once in a
great while.
Thanks,

Harrison,

|We are getting the message "Connection table space exhausted".  Can anyone tell
|me how to correct this?  The CMU manual has this error message listed but does
|not document the solution :-).
|

	In INTERNET.CONFIG, add the following line:

Variable:MAX_LOCAL_PORTS:n

	Where n is the number of local connections.  The default is 30.  I
suggest setting it up to 40, and going from there.  Beware: Setting this
parameter up will place an increased memory demand on IPACP.  Therefore,
you may want to examine the settings of the RUN command in IP_STARTUP.COM
to set up the various quotas that IPACP runs with.  Keeping them at the
current default settings may cause IPACP to die with an Insufficient VIrtual
Memory error, or some other memory problem.  This will be fixed in the future.

We are running cmu-tek 6.6-5 on vms 5.5 and we are having the following problem.
If we use telnet to the vax. we get the username prompt, we enter the username
and the password prompt doesn't appear until you type the next character or a
<CR>. The same thing appens when we are at the $ prompt, we enter a command and we never get back to the $ prompt until we type an extra character.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, Sun distributes a talk based on an old protocol spec that doesn't
work in a mixed-endian environment.  Tell your Sun system manager to get
a copy of the 4.3BSD talk from gatekeeper.dec.com and install it on the
Sun.

That's normal.  When I had a problem recently (printing from PC/TCP), the
same thing happened.  Normally the control file goes away immediately, and
the data file goes away when a PRINT/DELETE command terminates.

The "Class" parameter in the lpr protocol corresponds to the VAX form name.

This is not currently available, but all the hooks are there to do it.
Given a good conversion table, it should be possible to add it to the
2 routines that do the job.  It should not take more than a days work,
assuming a straight single character to single character conversion.

At the moment the set type ebcdic command just hooks up to an error message,
and nothing is set.

IPNCP NETSTAT shows lots of open connections.  Clearly the connections

few minutes they time out and I can transfer another 30 files.  Any
suggestions?  Thanks.

        Sorry I can't help with your problem, but I was hopeing to hop
into this thread with a related question :)  I have been trying
something similar, but have had no luck with 'binary' files, e.g., TeX
DVI-jep output to a HP LaserJet IIId or an image bitmap to a hardcopy
printer system.  I also get the data file transfered and the control file
also appears in the CMUTek_Root:[SysMgr] directory and are submitted to
the proper queue but are not '8-bit clean'.  The LJ output comes out
close but not correct.  The color printer just chokes and dumps the
file.  Upon close examination, I can see that the first part of the file
gets clobbered and some bits are lost.  Is this unavoidable?  Should I
ever be able to cleanly transfer the file to the VAX and drop it on the
appropriate printer queue?

        I also would like to send a "/Parameter=..." qualifier to the
VAX queue from the Unix system.  I know how to get a form via the -Class
switch, but I would really like a more generic qualifier passed.  Any
ideas?

        I also am CMU/Tek-IP v6.6-5A, VAX/VMS v5.5-1, and SunOS v4.1.2.

Well, I accidentally came across the solution to my problems with getting
CMU/TEK LPD to accept requests from an HP 9000/730.  When using SAM to
set up a printer there is an optional entry at the bottom of the screen
about whether the remote system is a BSD system.  Apparently, not
answering that question with a "Y" will result in the failure.  This morning
I changed that to a "Y" and everything is sailing along.  I hope this is
useful to someone in the future.

By the way, many thanks to Jonathan Hardis (hardis@vax844.phy.nist.gov)
for the pointer on the Class argument that specifies the VAX form name.
That saved many hours and a considerable amount of hair (of which I have
very little to spare).

Thanks to all for your hints.

    Hello out there

Just one simple question: Does UCX 2.0 support NFS file locking?
For the moment I am running 1.3A, and when I try using NFS file locking from
the UNIX side, I get a "statd does not respond" message.

When TELNETing to certain unix systems, our system tells theirs that our
terminal is a "dec-vt200"; this string is not recognized by the remote host,
with varying consequences.  The remote systems would have been happy with
"vt200". I'm running UCX 2.0 on VMS 5.4-3. The response is generated by UCX,
depending on SET TERMINAL/DEVICE=. If I change DEVICE to VT100, for example,
it says it's a "dec-vt100".  In UCX 1.3 this problem did not arise. I find
nothing in the manuals, at least in the indexes. Anyone else had this
experience?  Any suggestions?  Respond by email; I'll post a summary if it
seems to be of any interest.

 Can someone explain to me what turning proxies on does?  As 
 far as I can tell it dosen't do anything. I'm using LPD and
 it appears that application proxies are all it is interested in.
 Proxies are off by default and it's not clear what the difference
 is in having proxies turned on and having application proxies
 enabled on a service. 

 Can anyone shed some light?

 Thanks in Advance

 Kevin R. McHenry
