Code: Select all

   Another stop-press bug?

ITS $ tcpip show version

  HP TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS Industry Standard 64 Version V5.7 - ECO 5
  on an HP rx2600  (1.50GHz/6.0MB) running OpenVMS V8.4-2L3

ITS $ show network /full decnet

(More info available on request...)

ITS $ set host /mop /log = an1.log an1

ITS $ dire an1.log
%DIRECT-W-NOFILES, no files found

   Not under the default name, either:

ITS $ dire sethost
%DIRECT-W-NOFILES, no files found

   "SHOW DEVI /FILE" before and during shows only
[VMS$COMMON.SYSEXE]NET$CCR.EXE;1

   Imagine my disappointment.  An error message would have been better
than silent failure to perform.

   Yes, I can use something like "SET HOST 0 /LOG" first, but that
affects only the future.
