1) /etc/lcp -p /dev/tty?? claims that tty's that are actually LAT tty's aren't "LAT Devices". The -v function also fails with the same error making it impossible to set up additional LAT services from a 3.1C host. "Normal" incoming LAT works find.

It's not obvious whether the number given by ps is bogus or pstat is confused. Depending on the address you either get garbage data or a can't read page from swap error message. 3) The -P option to getnode/remnode isn't documented. This option (used by dsvconfig) apparently tells them to update the decnet permenant data base. If you you remnode without the -P option to delete a node that was added by dsvconfig, the deleted node reappears after the first reboot. 4) The -b option to nfs_umount (used in /etc/rc.local) isn't documented. I wonder if there is a 3.1C patch tape... -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing arpa: cbmvax!grr@uunet.uu.net Commodore, Engineering Department fone: 215-431-9255 (only by moonlite)

Someone does not agree on what "address" is; ps uses N, pstat uses N-1, e.g.: myhost % ps l#$$ F UID PID PPID CP PRI NI ADDR SZ RSS WCHAN STAT TT TIME COMMAND b008201 0 9095 9075 1 15 0 32fa 91 42 fe400 S p0 0:17 (csh) ^^^^ myhost % pstat -u 32f9 ^^^^ pcb (128 bytes) 0 1c00 64b2c9b9 0 8005660d df0009 6 1fc0000 c00c 900 8ff200 0 0 8fec00 3e8 0 0 900 8ff200 47f9 0 20001468 0 20087800 0 110000 59535b00 532e3053 58455359 59535d45 4f4f4253 58452e54 procp 45 et cetera....
