Hello,
I've been trying to set up a decnet feed to another site, and not having
much luck. After recompiling nntp_feed with debugging set to 1, I obtain
the following messages when trying it. Does anyone have an idea what I have
done wrong? The server machine is running vms 5.2, news 5.8a and the client
node is running vms 5.1-1 with news 5.8a. The NEWS_CLIENT program works from
from either node.
o$ nntpnnnn _feed desire decnet dua6:[news_mgr.ihave_desire]collect.i
ds tt: tt:
Connecting to NEWS SERVER on node desire:: ...
X> Try open channel to remote node
Net: Could not open network channel
Cannot connect to node, retry: <20883@gryphon.com>

, transfer aborted.
Thanks,

There is a bug in NNTP_FEED (well not really a bug, more a change which was not made by me): /* remove this line sprintf(netobj,"%s::\"NEWS=\"",node); */ /* changed code */ sprintf(netobj,"%s::\"TASK=NNTP\"",node); return(sys$assign(c$dsc(netobj),&net_chan,0,0) & 1); It is trying to connect to a different object!
