PROBEwatch Version 1 on ULTRIX does a mathmatical translation of
MAC address to DECnet address. It does not make an automatic
translation of the DECnet address to the DECnet name. It does look
in the local file for IP address and name translation, and it is a
simple matter to copy a DNS name space to your local node so that
you have all the latest and correct info. I say it's simple because
I've seen it done - I can't tell you how; perhaps someone else can
post a note here to describe how to do so.
You can manually edit the PROBEwatch names and create your own
address to name translation table.
We know that we need to make this automatic for all the common
protocols.
