[bit.listserv.pmdf-l] configuration on two X25 networks

FORNO@ITOPOLI (Silvio Forno +39-11-556.7011) (02/13/90)

Hello everybody.

        I'm in need of your help in solving the following problem.

I have a VAX connected to two different X.25 networks. I created two PX25
channels (master and slave) with wich I communicate with another VAX on
the first X.25 network, network that is referenced by the PSI$NETWORK logical.
This works fine.

Now I've created another couple of channel to communicate with another VAX
on the second X.25 network.

To avoid that the call be made to an non-existent/undesired computer on
the first network (because of the PSI$NETWORK logical), in the X25_DTE_LIST.
file I've specified the network name with the number:

PX25_PIP-OUT   = HappyNet.1234
PX25_PIP-IN    = HappyNet.1234

I though that this should work in the way 'SET HOST/X29 network.number' and
'PSI%network.number::username' work, but this was not true.

I see the source code, and it looks that the entry in X25_DTE_LIST is treated
only as a DTE number, not as an indication like network.DTE number.

Has anyone of you tried to set up such a configuration ?

Thanks for your help.
