Troubleshooting the Installation
If the TCP/IP HOSTNAME attribute is set, error messages sent to the client are prefixed
with “host-name.”
Troubleshooting the Installation
After starting TCP/IP, you can verify the network connection from the workstation to the
host using one of the following methods:
•
Use the PING utility located in the PCTCP subdirectory. PING sends a probe packet
from one end of a TCP/IP connection to another and verifies that an
acknowledgment was received. PING is provided by many TCP/IP
implementations. Refer to the documentation from your TCP/IP vendor for details
on running PING.
•
Establish a Telnet connection from your workstation to the Tandem TELSERV
(6530) process.
