In particular, I would like to know what to do if I receive this reply code after attempting to Send to a remote team. Does RETRY indicate the remote team has died, or does it just mean the kernel had to try several times before successfully sending the message? I.e. is RETRY a serious error or merely an informative warning? Should I code all routines that do Sends the same way as the Read function in Section B.7 of the V-system 6.0 Reference Manual? Thanks for your help, Hugh Bawtree bawtree@cs.sfu.ca
