[comp.os.vms] setting host while running a spwaned process

MARKUS@LOYVAX.BITNET (08/05/87)

We have an answering machine program here that runs in the background.
Basicly it is hibernating until a mailbox message trasnsfers control to
an AST handler.  The AST handler then logs and replies to the message.
The problem is (not really a problem, just a curiousity) that we can't
set host across nodes (or even to the same node) when the program is running.
We are on a VAX 11/785 running VMS 4.4 with two clustered nodes.  Any help
will be enlightening and appreciated.

By the way, if anyone would be interested in the program it is available
just for the asking (no i didn't write it, and no i don't completely understand
it).  My address is MARKUS@LOYVAX.BITNET.
