Managers,
I am helping a colleague set up LAT for interactive sessions on a Digital Unix
4.0b box. It used to work, but mysteriously and suddenly stopped working and
I would appreciate any advice about what to check.
We are connecting through a terminal server (a DSRVA-AA) on the same subnet as
the Digital Unix host. The terminal server and Unix box have both been
rebooted to no avail. On a terminal server port we see:
> Local> show serv gingi
>
> Service GINGI - available
>
> Node name Status Rating Announcement
>
> GINGI Reachable 253 Digital UNIX Version 4.0 LAT SERVICE
>
> Local> connect gingi
> Local -011- Session 1 disconnected from GINGI
Connections to OpenVMS hosts running LAT work fine.
I used latsetup to configure all the defaults. I append the outputs of latcp -d
for various flags (with counters zeroed before one unsuccessful connect).
