I am trying to set up a BIND/Hesios server on a VAX 3600 running Ultrix 4.1, so I ran bindsetup and configured it as the primary server. Then ran svcsetup and rebooted the machine. Fine and dandy. Then I went to one of our DECStation 3100's, also running Ultrix 4.1, and configured it as a BIND client. Well... the nslookup command, for example, works. If I type: # nslookup > ls hamavnet.com it lists all the machines on that domain. However, if I type for example telnet nodename and that nodename is not on the local database, it says "unknown host". The svcsetup was ran here also, and I told it to look up hosts (and passwd, etc) as local,bind. Any ideas? -- Javier Henderson Engineering Services Avnet Computer Los Angeles, CA henderson@hamavnet.com {simpact,asylum,elroy,dhw68k}!hamavnet!henderson
