:	A friend of mine is having some problems integrating Verilog and Hilo 
:into the CADENCE Software (SUN-3 environment). Both tools run properly when 
:called from the shell, but from the framework menus, some errors are reported:

:	- Verilog: Error in the keyfile
	^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

	As far as I know, Cadence issues keys to port the software you
	get from them , onto your system.
	
	Your problem indicates that you are specifying a different key

	or a possible error on part of the distributor.
	
	- Hilo: Compilation error
	^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

	We experienced a not too similar problem in running Hspice.
	It'd run outside the environment. But not when invoked from the
	menus. Later, it was found that we had a copy that doesn't
	match with the spex of the framework. It was replaced promptly
	by Cadence.

:Any hints would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

	I might not have hit the head. But just a piece of clues
