These non_lat hosts will be connected to a DECserver 200/MC. I have no problems with that except that the COSC dept. also wants some of these non-LAT hosts to have bi-directional ports on the DECserver. Following the manual, I can set up the hosts, but so far I haven't been able to find anything that talks about making them bi-directional. Normally, the port would have to be set up REMOTE. Does it need to be changed to be DYNAMIC? Or am I missing something entirely? +---------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Daniel A.
