971.0. "Problem with Remote Binding in T3.1 on UNIX V4.0B" by wookpc.ogo.dec.com::LEE () Thu Feb 13 1997 00:43

There seems to be a problem with remote CLNS binds.

I installed T3.1 on UNIX V4.0B with the patch for UNIX V4.0A installed.

The DSA was configured with just the CLNS address.

Local binds were fine.

Binds from a V3.0-ECO3 system failed with could not transmit data to DSA.

Binds over RFC1006 work locally and remotely once it's configured.

Binds from the T3.1 system to other DSAs work.

Looks like a DSA-listening problem on the T3.1 system.

Wook,

    I havent tried X.500 T3.1 on UNIX V4.0b,  but  I did
    get some problem when I started using CLNS. There are
    normally two CLNS nsaps, but only one form works
    unless you do some NCL configuration. Since I am not
    a DECnet expert I just use the form that works as below

    dxim> bind test to address "DSA"/"DSA"/"DSA"/NS+49002AAA000400CBAA21,CLNS
 
    The form 4900CA08002B*******  did not work

971.2LAN Address not the issuewookpc.ogo.dec.com::LEEThu Feb 13 1997 22:048
I only has the phase IV compatible NSAP configured. My understanding is
that the other form is a null ethernet LAN address that is supposed to
work in the absense of any phase 5 routers. This was not an issue in my
case. I don't know what caused the problem, but it seems I've worked
around it for now. Since I have other things to test, I'll let this on go
for now.
