#5 Problem with dn(command)

[Stéphane Morin]

I installed all stuff for Decnet.

When i use dndir,dncopy or anything else, i have no
result, just the cursor waiting for a reply!

On linux, when i use dndir, i hear the vms disk work, but
nothing is replying to linux!

Why?

I use RedHat 9

Thanks for the help

This sounds like an instance of a known problem with the Red
Hat kernel. Can you try a custom-built kernel instead ?

Yes i can try a custom-built kernel!

But where can i found it, is it hard to install?

If i use a custom-built kernel, can i have other problems?

Thanks

OK, I apologise for giving out diff information. I've just
actually tried RedHat 9 and works perfectly.

So you need to check that your ethernet card has it's MAC
address set correctly (look for it in /proc/net/decnet_dev)

If that's so then try doing dndir with -vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv
and send me the output. Best send to my email address rather
than this rather basic "support" system!
