When the master server receives a connection for a service, it creates a process for that connection. The tcpware_server routine is then used by the server to pick up that connection. The routine and the master server exchange some mailbox messages to communicate this information. Some other means of doing the same thing are to use SYS$INPUT and SYS$OUTPUT. The master server can create a process with SYS$INPUT (and/or SYS$OUTPUT) pointing to the device for the connection. Hope that helps ... if not, email me directly or post additional questions. - Bernie Volz Process Software Corporation ================================================================================ Archive-Date: XXX, 12 Jul 1995 17:07:41 GMT Subject: UCX emulation Message-ID: <3u0vgt$qdf@gatekeeper.cognos.com> From: nigelc@Cognos.COM (Nigel Campbell) Date: 12 Jul 1995 17:07:41 GMT Does this package provide UCX emulation like TGV by chance? -- Nigel Campbell Voice: (613) 738-1338 ext 3016 P.O.

However, V4.0 was released before this was ever developed so you will need to upgrade to a later version. V4.1-3 is the suggested minimum. V5.0 would be even better.

Please open a support call (suppor@process.com). I did forward your message to support. The SS$_IVADDR status can occur on a "bind" or "connect" operation. Typically, it means you're trying to use a broadcast address. Regarding the server ... is it possible to comment out the SET NOVERIFY to see exactly where the SS$_BADPARAM status is coming from?

The DEC Notes client works fine (once the SERVICES. file has the "notes" entry added). However, the server loops once a connection is made. The problem is that we're not letting the server bind to the port (so it tries over and over). A "patch" kit that corrects this problem in the UCX emulation is available. Please either send me an email for details or contact technical support (support@process.com).

This made the UCX emulation create wrong UCX$ logicals. Intresting: Pre TCPware 5 it worked perfectly... Now, all the UCX emulation works better then before - we are able to connect again other DECUS chapters DEC Notes servers.
