Hey, We had a problem with a KMS11 interface and consulted Rob Kelleher from DEC's AFSG Net and Comms Support to help us - our problems are not yet solved, but by the way Rob send us a Patch for the NETACP used on Area-Routers. It might be possible that this is a well known patch - i never heard about this patch... - but nevertheless i'll send it to you. wbw Matthias Ress ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | Matthias Ress | | Gesellschaft fuer Mathematik und DV | | Project E.I.S. | | P.O.Box 1240 | | D-5205 St.Augustin 1 | | West Germany | | | | phone: (0049) 2241/14-2301 | | E-mail: ress@eis.gmd.dbp.de | | ress%gmdeis@gmdzi.UUCP | | PSI%026245224124140::RESS | | telex: 8 89 469 gmd d | | telefax: (0049) 2241/14-2889 | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- TO USE: Extract into file.
