Greetings,


I have a couple of questions about VS2000 i would like to known.

  1. Nowdays it should be possible to connect a VS2000 to a thick Ethernet
     with a H4000 (or should it?). Have anybody done this with H4000 or
     other trancievers.

  2. I could't find how to interpreat the configuration ( that what TEST 50
     gives). I found what most of the fields stands for, exept hoe to
     interpreat the "error code". For example I get for the NI device following
               NI  00100.00001  V1.3
     and would like to know what  100 is for (it not marked as software
     error ( ? ) or hardware error ( ?? ).

  3. And the last one. I try to boot a satellitite ( Satellite_config has
     been run, and ethernet address is OK, and  NCP database should be OK)
     but it will not succed. The bootmember's console displays an errormessage
     it from DECNET

      %%%%%%%%%%%  OPCOM  15-APR-1988 14:01:22.29  %%%%%%%%%%%
      Message from user DECNET on XYZZY
      DECnet event 0.7, aborted service request
      From node 1.62 (XYZZY), 15-APR-1988 14:01:59.07
      Circuit QNA-0, Line open error, Line communication error
      %SYSTEM-F-TIMEOUT, device timeout
      Node = 1.122 (ATEST)

     The other Satellite node boots correctly (no problem at all, its a
     MicroVax II)



Many Thanks in Advance.
