Re: Trouble connecting to DB using TCP

Art, I solved the problem this morning...Here's the deal FYI: Under NIS+ /etc/services is used for backward compatability for some legacy programs (i.e. pcnfsd), but the real deal is in /etc/flat_files/services. This file must be modified and then a script run on it to add it to the NIS+ database (no restart necessary!). I checked out all our required connection to Enterprise Server 3.0 and it works like a champ. Thanks for your help. Also, many thanks to fellow list member Claude Martin for putting me on the right track. -- -------------------------------------------------------- Michael L.
