355.0. "NET$FDDI patch for ALPHA V6.2?" by HGOSPS::KENNETH () Thu Mar 20 1997 05:38

Hi,

My customer is facing a problem on FDDI and the DECnet-OSI conference told
me that there is a FDDI patch that I can get if from VMS Engineering.

Is there anyone know what is the name of the patch?  It is an ALPHA system
running V6.2.  It it ALPLAN04_062?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Kenneth Leung

    No.  It's not normal.  This is fixed in OpenVMS V7.0.  Contact
    VMS Engineering to get NET$FDDI fixes for earlier OpenVMS versions.
    Note that you need to apply the fix to the <remote node> in order
    to get this to work properly.
