Has anybody wired up 2 Vaxstation 3100's and tried to rlogin to 1 from the other ? If so, what am I doing wrong !! Essentially, I booted the basic system (choice 1 from the menu). Chose a class a network in netsetup But when I do a rlogin I get "Network not reachable". I logged in at the root. But I didn't go to single user / superuser mode. Should I have ? I seem to have superuser / system manager priveleges just the way I am. I feel I am not doing something big. Like start up a daemon or not invoking tcp / ip... Arrggh. We had 1 guy come in to see what was wrong, he spotted 1 error in the IP network numbers so we fixed it . He went away. However, the problem remained. I am new at Unix / workstations/ Lans, so any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Phil Neal Just a poor sailor on the beach, trying to make a living.. nealiphc@blake.acs.washington.edu

If you booted single user, then your Ethernet inerface has not been initialized. Try executing the 'ifconfig se0' that in /etc/rc.local and then trying to rlogin. -- Matt Thomas Internet: thomas@decwrl.dec.com DECnet-Ultrix Development UUCP: ...!decwrl!thomas Digital Equipment Corporation Disclaimer: This message reflects my own Littleton, MA warped views, etc.
