[comp.protocols.appletalk] "getzones" not working with kip0688/CAP 5.0

dplatt@coherent.com (Dave Platt) (11/16/88)

The "getzones" program provided with CAP 5.0 doesn't seem to work in my
configuration;  it receives an AppleTalk error -1096 (request failed;
retry count exceeded) each time I use it.  The "atlook" command and its
variants ("atlooklws" and "atpinger") work fine from the same machine;
I can see hosts in the Unix/EtherNet zone, as well as Macs in the
PhoneNet zone.

Am I doing something wrong, or is the code for "getzones" broken?  Or,
perhaps, is kip 06/88 not handling the GetZoneList query correctly?
