HDR: Error -956 on WindowsNT

Hello, we are trying to set up HDR with Informix 7.31 using the Administrator's guide. Everything is ok until the secondary server shall connect to the primary server using the onmode command. The connection fails and error -956 (Client host or user not trusted by server) is shown in the message log of the primary server. The registry entries and the settings in the host file of NT should be correct (are there pitfalls?), we even tried a hosts.equiv file. The database servers can connect to each other using DBAccess without any problems. Any clues? Thanks in advance, Oliver.

Just a question, but nobody knows: Did you try to setup HDR on 2 machines with same hard- and software? > > The registry entries and the settings in the host file of NT > should be correct (are there pitfalls?), we even tried a hosts.equiv > file.

If passwords are the same, you should try dbaccess..connect... choose server at user prompt just type <enter> If this will work too, than we have to dig a little bit deeper in config files.
