> Hello, >=20 > I am using dnping (Linux-DECNET) for testing the availability of VAX > machines. The timeout is set for 3 seconds.

It looks like to me that the decnet stack somehow remembers the > connections even after service is restarted. >=20 > Thanks in advance for the answer, > Robert Lhota >=20 |
