problem with TCP/IP (UCX) connectivity?

The Question is:

 
Problem with TCP/IP:
We have a VAX VLC that we really don't use...  And I was hoping to make it a
"test System."
 
UCX is installed/and licensed on the machine.  However, if I try to
ping/telnet to the machine I get no results.  If I ping/telnet out of the
machine... again, no results.  I can Ping the machine's own IP address...
and it says it is alive.
 
From any other node... I can set host to the VLC... so I know the
network(decnet) is working and the card is working.
 
Any ideas??

The Answer is :

 
  Make sure you are running a recent version of TCP/IP Services for
  OpenVMS (UCX) such as V4.1 or V4.2, and any applicable UCX ECOs have
  been applied.
 
  Ensure that the system is correctly configured with the UCX$CONFIG
  tool, and that UCX is correctly started up during the site-specific
  portion of the system startup procedure.
 
  If problems persist, please contact the customer support center.
