Just installed SR10.3 on a DN4500, having a problem. Am trying to bring up the node, and every time I try a tcp function (such as ftp, or anything) I get a message in my DM area about an improper X function and the process being disconnected. The process seems to be tcpd, because it immediately exits. Then I have to shut down the node and reboot, lest the node totally lockup. Why is tcpd exiting, and what can I do to keep it up? I am running a pretty default config, as I have yet to restore my files. I am running tcpd, llbd, glbd, rgyd (default registry, mine isn't restored yet), inetd, my networks file, a shortened version of my hosts file, and not much else. I am logging in as root. Also, how do I rename my //node_..... to the old name I used to use? I want to change the workstation name (in other words) -- ===================================================================== Sydney S. Weinstein, CDP, CCP Elm Coordinator Datacomp Systems, Inc.

It appears it was a late night, and I had a typo in the hosts file. If you have an ip address conflict, two nodes with the same ip address, this is what it does, just give a message about an illegal X function, and then exit. I fixed that and now tcpd stays up. >Also, how do I rename my //node_..... to the old name I used to >use? I want to change the workstation name (in other words) Many people told me about ctnode/uctnode, which I had tried at an older rev and got errors from and never did get the uctnode to work quite right, at 10.3 it worked fine. Thanks to all for their help. -- ===================================================================== Sydney S. Weinstein, CDP, CCP Elm Coordinator Datacomp Systems, Inc.
