****************************
Condition before the restart :
****************************

Any access to the CDS (like rpc_ns_binding_export) produces the message :

rpc_ns_binding_export : Name service unavailable (dce / rpc).

In these conditions, our application cannot read/write to/from the CDS
database.



******************
DCE configuration :
******************

The DCE configuration of the machine is the following :

        Cellname:    vsu66_cell
        Hostname:    vsu66

        DCE daemon
        CDS master server

3178.1	DCE 2.0a Not Supported under Unix 4.0B	RDGENG::CHAMBERLIN	Danger! Do not Reverse Polarity	`Wed Feb 12 1997 08:22`	19
	Gabriel, DCE V2.0a is not yet supported under Digital Unix V4.0B, and we are aware that some parts of it do not work. As yet we do not know when the problems will be resolved. I am trying to find more infomation about whether your problem is known, or whether it is to do with setup/install. DCE V2.0a is supported under Digital Unix V4.0 and V4.0A. Is it possible for you to try under one of these versions, which will help to clarify the problem? Regards, Ian Chamberlin, Software Partner Enginnering.
3178.2	Should refer to CSC - seems like bugs in DCE with Unix 4.0B. (sent on 13 Feb)	RDGENG::CHAMBERLIN	Danger! Do not Reverse Polarity	`Tue Feb 18 1997 05:39`	21
	Gabriel, Could you please install the latest patches for Digital Unix V4.0B. There are several threads bug fixes that would affect DCE. Patch ID OSF410-400131 might fix CDSADV hanging, although your problem is not one we have come accross. I'm not sure if V4.0B patches are available yet from our WWW site, http://www.service.digital.com/html/patch_main.html if not please contact your local Customer Support Centre. SInce your problem is either an instalation problem, or product fault, I would recommend you log the problem with the Customer Support Centre anyway, since they are better able to deal with such problems. Regards, Ian Chamberlin, Software Partner Engineering, Digital Equipment Co.
