Hi Jeroen,

If you find that your TCPIP services is running correctly, then you can simply update the network register to get correct output from SHOW NET command. See the $HELP SET NETWORK for more details.

Here is an example

$set network tcpip/update/node=node_name/add=1.2.3.4

HTH,
Thanks & regards,
Lokesh

Jeroen,

you can try and execute SYS$MANAGER:SYS$NET_SERVICES_TCPIP.COM by hand (which is where SHOW NETWORK gets its information from) to see where the problem is.

HTH,
Martin

Jeroen,

there is also a default procedure to do this:

$ @SYS$STARTUP:SYS$NET_SERVICES.COM

As far as I remember, you had to invoke this procedure in SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM for the older OpenVMS versions (around V7.1-2).

Volker,

SYS$NET_SERVICES has probably been run, as the DECnet info is there.

Martin

Hi Jeroen

I think I had a similar problem before.
What does TCPIP SHOW CONF COMMUNICATION display ? Can you see there the IP name of the machine and the domain.

$ tcpip sh conf comm

Communication Configuration

Local host: IP-NAME-OF-HOST Domain: xxx.yyy

Cluster timer: 0

Interfaces: 0 Type: Default
Device_sockets: 0
Routes: 0
Services: 0
Proxies: 0

Free Maximum Minimum
Large buffers 0 0 0
Small buffers 0 0 0
IRPs 0 0
Non TCPIP buffers 0

Remote Terminal
Large buffers: 0
UCBs: 0
Virtual term: disabled

re: Martin,

looks like @SYS$NET_SERVICES needs to be (re-)run in SYSTARTUP_VMS.COM after starting TCPIP (in the older VMS versions). It uses the TCPIP$INET* logicals.

Nowadays (V8.2 and TCPIP V5.5), it's being run from VMS$BASEENVIRON-050_VMS.COM and also from TCPIP$STARTUP.COM
