Unsupported Features
•
UID (referred to as UNIX ID in DCE documentation and sometimes as
user ID in OSS documentation)
Instead, the dce_login utility uses the OSS HOME and SHELL environment
variables. NonStop operating system user IDs are used in place of UIDs. No
mechanism exists to change the operating system user ID within the
dce_login utility.
•
NonStop DCE internationalization has the following limitations:
°
Only the default C/POSIX locale supported within the standard C run-time
library is provided. Any attempt to set the locale to another value fails; the
offending program continues to run, however, using the C/POSIX default
locale.
°
The only automatic character code-set conversion available is ASCII to
EBCDIC.
°
Only a single message catalog is supplied.
•
NonStop DCE does not support IPv6 addressing on TCP/IPv6 configured in DUAL
mode. It supports IPv4 addressing only on TCP/IPv6 configured in DUAL mode. It
also supports TCP/IPv6 configured in INET mode.
