Help! Error -956: My system doesen't trust itself

ODS Release 7.13.UC5 Hi family, I'm overlooking some stupid detail in configuring an instance and can't figure out where. I have two instances on one machine. In my default - the one I set up my ENV for when I log in - I have no problem connecting. In the other server instance I get the following error when I try to connect to a database. $ dbaccess - - > database rga; 956: Client host or user (jake@bacchus.apparel.net) is not trusted bythe server. No such file or directory Error in line 1Near character position 1 Huh? It's a local server! Whaddaymean, not trusted?! onstat -m shows the message in the log:15:11:33 listener-thread: err = -956: Client host or user (jake@bacchus.apparel.net) is not trusted by the server. As it happens, there is no /etc/hosts.equiv nor any need for one - the connections are all local. Besides, if this were the problem the other instance would be just as useless! The sqlhosts file entry for this system has only a sockets server name, no shm entry. Otherwise, it's logically identical to the other entries. The service entry in /etc/services seems in order as well. The biggest difference I can find between these setups is the NETTYPE parameter. In the system I connect to, this is 2 lines: NETTYPE ipcshm,1,100,CPU # Override sqlhosts nettype parameters NETTYPE soctcp,2,100,NET # Override sqlhosts nettype parameters In the paranoid system, this is: NETTYPE soctcp,2,100,CPU # Override sqlhosts nettype parameters Before y'all jump all over this, I recall a problem in a release 6.0 system that was solved by letting a CPU-VP handle listener threads for the socket connection. Besides, this has nothing to do with trusted systems. My nose tells me the error message is the wrong message for the error. Has anyone ever seen this? What am I overlooking?
