1764.0. "PW v5.0C (UNIX) and PW v5.0E (OVMS) incompatibil.?" by ROM01::CABIANCA () Sat Mar 01 1997 12:47

        Hi,
    
        I have a very urgent trouble to solve:
    
        the environment was:
    
        1) AS1000 OpenVMS v6.1-1H2 with PW 5.0C - PDC
        2) VAX OpenVMS v6.1 with PW 5.0C - BDC
        3) Digital UNIX v3.2 with PW 5.0C - BDC
    
        in this case, I was able to make connection from server-to-server
        in all kind of manner, that is:
    
        from the AS1000 to Digital UNIX and viceversa:
    
        $ net admin \\unix_server_name unix_server_admin_passw /command....
    
        from the VAX to Digital UNIX and viceversa:
    
        ...same command...
    
        Then, I've upgraded to 5.0E (for better WIN95 access to the servers),
        but I can't no more doing the above commands.
    
        That is, the above commands work fine from UNIX to OpenVMS, but NOT
        viceversa!
    
        So, from the PDC (Alpha OVMS) I can't manage the UNIX BDC!
    
        All password are allined, of course, and the UAS are synchronized as
        well.
    
        When I release the above commands from Alpha/OVMS to UNIX and from
        VAX/VMS to UNIX, I receive:
    
        Error 71: the network request was not accepted.
    
        Then on the UNIX machine, I've done:
    
        # net share admin$ /unlimited
    
        Now the Error 71 is turned to:
    
        Error 1: Incorrect Function.
    
        My question: is there any incompatibility between the 5.0E (OpenVMS
        version) and the 5.0C (UNIX version) of PATHWORKS product?
    
        Have I to upgrade to a more recent version of PW on UNIX machine? (it
        is another AS1000).
    
        What version I need?
    
        It's saturday, and I am in troubles with this!
    
        Please, help me to solve correctly this hard problem (for me).
    
        Thanks in advance,
    
        Best Regards,
        Davide Cabianca

	There was a problem starting in PW/VMS 5.0d, where the VMS server sent multiple dialects to the Unix server. The PW/Unix server was selecting a client dialect. Are there any errors in the pwlicreg.log file? This was fixed in 5.0G ECO1. The current SSB kit this customer should use is 5.0G ECO2. Julia
1764.2	is 5.0G for VMS? where can i find it?	ROM01::CABIANCA		`Wed Mar 05 1997 09:53`	13
	Hi Julia, thank you for your answer! When you speak about 5.0G, do you mean PW/OVMS 5.0G? (not PW/UNIX?). So, ugrading PW/OSF from 5.0C to 5.0F on the UNIX machine is not necessary for solving this problem... Have you got a network pointer to the kit you suggest? Best Regards, Davide.
