Hi ;
	Someone who has VAX6220 may interest in this network problem !!!!
        *************************************************************
	*************************************************************

	Currently our campus network was designed to allow student use
	PC running DECnet/DOS v 1.2 through DEMPER direct connect to Ethernet 
        backbone. One of our VAXcluster 6220 (VMS 5.0-2 two processor) 
        suddently became network resource unavailable. I checked users at that 
	moment only 11 users on the system but when I checked NCP> show know 
	link, there were lots of unknown processors occupied the line.
	I call DEC Colorado for help.
        The unsatisfied answers are:
        ***************************

	" When you log in and log out of VAX6220 using DECnet-DOS v 1.2 through
	DEMPR and did not turn off P.C. right away. VAX will still reconize
	you still hanging there wear an unknown mask. That's why the unknown
	processors from."


	I am doing some test now including update the DECnet-DOS version and
	modify NCP parameters. But if someone has the same experience I had
	please let me know.
