Software Installation Problems
For more information on the DSV$CONFIGURE database, refer to the Network Access
Software Installation Guide.
At a UNIX load host:
# /etc/list_Decserver
myds: tc=DS.default: ha=08002BFC0176: ip=192.12.79.6: bf=MNENG2:
gw=192.12.79.3: sm=255.255.255.0
If your access server is missing or contains incorrect information, refer to the Network
Access Software Installation Guide for information on adding an access server.
Ensure the Access Server Is Entered in /etc/bootptab
If you are using Internet Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP) and Trivial File Transfer Protocol
(TFTP) to downline load the access server software, ensure the /etc/ bootptab file contains
the following information: home directory, Internet address, hardware address, hardware
type, and boot file name. Note that some implementations of the BOOTP protocol require
more information. For more information on the /etc/bootptab file, refer to the Network
Access Software Installation Guide.
Verify Using Correct Service Circuit
If your load host has more than one Ethernet controller, be sure that you used the correct
service circuit-ID during the DSV$CONFIGURE procedure. If you do not know the load
host service circuit-ID, enter the following NCP command to display active circuits.
At DECnet Phase IV load hosts:
