Subj: 	On a new host - running as odeclient can't do some ODE operations.

This is most likely a system management problem but it looks as though
ODE might have some host-name dependency when one runs as a client.

I got a new machine today - called "jampa" - mounted my quarry sandboxes
on a jampa directory and was able to do a workon.  However when I tried
to run BUILD  or a mklinks I get the following output - can you help? 
The sytem folks added "jampa" to the export list for my 
quarry home directory, is there something else I should be doing.  It looks
like a permission problem somewhere..

Here are two examples of the problems I get:

1. 

jampa.zk3.dec.com:/rz2c/users/courtney/quarry/sb/ld_work/src/usr/ccs/bin/ld
% build
relative path: ./usr/ccs/bin/ld.
string passed to 
/usr/sde/osf1/build/steelos.nightly/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/hostbin/make:
   make -cF build_all 
cd ../../../../../obj/alpha/usr/ccs/bin/ld
Make: Cannot open ../../../..//usr/lib/makefiles/standard.mk.  Stop.

jampa.zk3.dec.com:/rz2c/users/courtney/quarry/sb/ld_work/src/usr/ccs/bin/ld
%  

2:

jampa.zk3.dec.com:/rz2c/users/courtney/quarry/sb/v40support/src/usr/ccs/bin/ld
% mklinks .
>> FATAL ERROR in mklinks:
   chdir failed on

Don, 
  I think that you need to ensure that your localhost (jampa) has the same path names
as quarry to reach your sandboxes.  You also need to ensure that your localhost
(jampa) has all the sandboxes (required to build) mounted.  

regards,

Mike Martin

Thanks Mike - I'll check out what you suggested.  Note that the immediate
problem I had was due to the fact that m y group ID was different on
the local machine.  My UID was ok and I was'nt looking at the group id...
