Where do I find the explanation of this error message? I'm on rhesus, the database "primate" is on "uakari". % quel uakari::primate Error starting up INGRES 9900: end of file Hm. End of WHAT file? Lastcomm shows: quel ingres ttyp0 1.38 secs Fri Dec 29 16:40 kill_ing ingres ttyp0 0.03 secs Fri Dec 29 16:40 ntproc DX ingres ttyp0 0.92 secs Fri Dec 29 16:40 so evidently the error message is from ntproc (which gracefully dumps core, by the way. The stack trace is: STlength () t4_conn () NTconnect () main () I'm clueless. Can anyone help me out? This is with Ingres 5.0 on both ends of the network.

Alternatively, make sure the login shell for the remote account is csh, and the rexec()ing program will use ~ingres (unless a bug in rexecd forces use of /bin/sh). there should be a test program distributed, which diagnoses TCP problems: it's called n4test or some such -- look at ~ingres/bin/*test* -- and beware of a bug in the version I've seen, in which it only works if you 'sh -x' it!!! piglet. -- Peter Swain - Softway Pty Ltd (swine@softway.oz) 79 Myrtle St, Chippendale, NSW, Australia PHONE: +61-2-698-2322 UUCP: uunet!softway.oz!swine FAX: +61-2-699-9174 INTERNET: swine@softway.oz.au

It should be in ~ingres/bin, and can help isolate which part of ingres/net is breaking.
