1869.0. "Vitalink AM registration problems" by MORO::MCVICKER_GR (di s int e g rati o n) Wed Dec 04 1991 05:33

    I'm having some trouble registering TRANSLAN bridges into DECmcc after
    installing the VBAM V1.0.0.  Can anyone shed some light on what
    incredibly trivial and silly things I'm overlooking ?

	What happens when you do

MCC> SHOW TRANS 08-00-7c-07-01-a7 all counters

or

MCC> SHOW TRANS 08-00-7c-07-01-a7 all attrib

1869.2Sounds like backtranslation directory not there.MCDOUG::MCPHERSONMy object paradigm needs integration...Wed Dec 04 1991 10:031
Did you create the bactranslation directories on your DNS server? 
1869.3problem resolvedMORO::MCVICKER_GRdi s int e g rati o nThu Dec 05 1991 00:3918
    I ran the MCC_DNS_BASIC_SETUP.COM procedure only.  In searching through
    that file, I found the DNS$CONTROL commands for CREATE DIRECTORY
    .MCC_BRIDGE_BACKTRANSLATION, etc.
    
    I tried the SHOW TRANSLAN address ALL COUNTERS and
                SHOW TRANSLAN address ALL ATTRIBUTES
    with success...I received the requested info from the bridge whose
    address I specified.
    
    I then ran DNS$CONTROL, and did a 
    CREATE DIRECTORY .MCC_TRANSLAN_BACKTRANSLATION
    
    I can now register my bridgesand access them by name!  Just to be sure,
    was this a proper fix for my dim-ness ?
    
    Thanks for the quick replies!

	Yes.  That's the ticket.
