Help!! We are trying to communicate over an ethernet lan from a QNX box to an HP3000 running MPE/XL. We are trying to use tcp-ip. We have tried several commercial packages (CMC and FASTech) which provide Berkeley socket development tools. HP has told us that their NETIPC protocol will communicate with a socket. We have had no luck in doing this. We have been told from two different HP sources conflicting stories on compatibility between NETIPC and Berkeley sockets. One source says it will work, the other says it won't . If knowledgable person out there knows the truth on this matter your help would be GREATLY appreciated. Does, or doesn't, NETIPC speak Berkeley sockets? If so, what's the magic word that gets it to work? If not then are there alternative protocols we can consider? Any info is useful. Please help set us straight. Thanks, Dilip and Jeff The Gap Eastern Distribution Center 3434 Mineola Pike Erlanger, KY 41018
