DECnet config problem?

[Imre Molnar]

Well...
The protection and privilege are OK at SYS$WELCOME, SYSUAF.
The SET AUDIT with /ALARM/Enab=logfail=all
was set. Plus /enab=login, /enab=logout, access=all

I tried to run a little batch with other non-priv user, it was OK.

But SET HOST 0, and SET HOST, telnet from remote machine wasnt work.

Every AUDIT entry says normal + succesful, even the login wasnt successful.

For example SET HOST 0 resulted 5 entries;
RTPAD, LIBOTS, LIBRTL, RTPAD, SHRIMGMSG all with success.

I compared our VAX and ALPHA DECnet database and found the SMISERVER isnt in the list at the side of ALPHA when i run the MC NCP SHOW KNO OBJ.

Imre,

it's not RJOBLIM being 0, as this will still casue TELNET localhost to work and cause DECnet SET HOST 0 to return %SYSTEM-F-REJECT

I would suggest that you reboot the system and capture all of the output in a file, then look for everything with -W- -E- or -F- and try to fix the problem.

You can capture the startup log by setting STARTUP_P2 = "D" and then checking SYS$SYSTEM:STARTUP.LOG

Imre,
in SYSUAF your user have no access restrictions?

Before i get the Username prompt the system can't decide what user entry should use from SYSUAF. So what user entry should check for access restriction?
And situation is that as wrote:
Nobody can't log in, and we can't see the Username: prompt...

Maybe someone tampered with you SYSUAF logical ?

[Michael LaRoche]

I don't know if this will help but if you can check on if there were any changes to sylogin.com since the time before you rebooted.

Also look in there and see where if anywhere the if mode .eqs. "interactive" branches to.

Imre,

if I turn on SET AUDIT/ALARM/ENA=ACCESS=ALL and do set SET HOST 0, the sequence of file access is:

RTPAD,LIBOTS,LIBRTL (from current process)
LOGINOUT on RTAn: device

You're missing the LOGINOUT entry, so we can be SURE, that LOGINOUT isn't even touched - all the questions relating to actions to be performed by LOGINOUT are therefore irrelevant...

Could it be something in the TTY system params ? Or some resource problems ?

Imre,
if you see Username prompt and you can can type the password I guess you can enter into system then you are logged out immediatly.
It's very weird ...
My check list is:
- File protection in SYS$MANAGER:SYLOGIN.COM
- Parameter RJOBLIM in SYSGEN
- Parameter UAFALTERNATE in SYSGEN ?
- Licence exausted
- Something in SYLOGIN.COM like
SET TERM/INQUIRE or LOGOUT

No any other idea now.

As i wrote:
We can't see/get the Username: prompt...
RJOBLIM is 16, maybe enough good...
TTY params seems to good also...
License are active...

I suspect that the LOGINOUT.EXE doesn't start and catch the login...

As Volker wrote too...

[Antoniov.]

Because trouble started after reboot may be something in system parameters.
May you make a dump of sysgen?
