Our 386 tower running SCO Xenix with an Excelan Ethernet card and TCP/IP (LAN Workplace 3.6) software is doing something strange. Our net is 192.9.200.0 (yes I know that's Sun's - we'll change it eventually) and the 386 talks fine to our Sun and other machines. Once a minute the rwho daemon pumps out a packet to 200.9.192.0 instead of 192.9.200.0! This looks like a network-byte-order problem. It isn't mentioned in the release notes. Please reply by mail - I don't read this group often enough. --------- Tom Evans tom@wcc.oz.au | Webster Computer Corp P/L | "The concept of my 1270 Ferntree Gully Rd | existence is an Scoresby, Melbourne 3179 | approximation" Victoria, Australia | 61-3-764-1100 FAX ...764-1179 | D.
