The 'login information invalid' message almost *always* means that the
MCC_EVC_SINK object did NOT get created. It is possible for the
process to get created, but not the DECnet object. This is usually a
privilege-related problem.
Please make certain that you are enabling the sink from a process with
the appropriate DEFAULT privileges (i.e. SETPRV won't cut it),
preferably from SYSTEM, since that removes all doubts. Unfortunately, I
don't remember the exact priv list is that's needed...
To save myself from having to think about this, I inserted the "enable"
command line into my SYSTARTUP_V5.com after the MCC_STARTUP_BMS.COM
procedure runs... (STARTUP runs with all privs, so no problems... just
set and forget.) BTW: Due to popular demand, we have added a startup
procedure for the EVC_SINK to the FT2 kit, similar to the one for the
DECnet event sink startup...
I don't know the sink code very well so I'll leave any discussions of
it's internals to Jean or someone else..
Hope that helps.
