RE: Meiko CStools problem ... help !


I am using the UNIRAS graphics library which is a set of FORTRAN routines.
Most of my code is in C so I followed the UNIRAS manual directions and called
my C program from a simple FORTRAN main program.  Basically UNIRAS must be 
called from FORTRAN.
	Well the problem arose when I placed the UNIRAS process on our Sun
host.  All the CStools setup calls are done in the C program.  The UNIRAS
process successfully opened it's transport but failed on registering it's 
name.
	The problem centres around the fact that I have a C program called
from a FORTRAN program and trying to communicate with other processes using
CStools.  Has this uncovered a bug?  Do I need to setup CStool from FORTRAN
program rather than the C program.
	Anyway I hope someone can help .. any Meiko people out there.? The 
resulting errors are listed below

		UNIRAS: have successfully opened transport
ERROR	--->	mamma: got bad protocol from addr 0x83   
		EXE proc0`loader`loader killed as pid 690
		EXE proc0`system`system killed as pid 691
		*** Hangup = signal 1 code 0 
		*** Terminated = signal 15 code 0
