Just in case someone else runs into this. I kept getting WSAEADDRNOTAVAIL after installing and trying to connect (without INETD) to HuiVista4.1SemiVivA.tgz with CPRS 1.0.25.42 after following the directions from the quick install guide - which included starting the broker on port 9300.
The server was running and the above port open and accessible. Still no go. Finally I checked with Ethereal/tcpdump which showed the following: greenlawn:/home/ibk/log/vista/cprs_connect# tcpdump -r hui41_cprs12542_win2k_noinetd reading from file hui41_cprs12542_win2k_noinetd, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet) 21:44:24.244397 IP bach.home.1069 > greenlawn.9200: S 1630209202:1630209202(0) win 65535 <mss 1460,nop,nop,sackOK> So what was going on? Was port 9200 hard coded somewhere? Here is the RPC BROKER, Select RPC BROKER SITE PARAMETERS DOMAIN NAME: HUIOPENVISTADEV.PACIFICHUI.NET ANOTHER ONE: STANDARD CAPTIONED OUTPUT? Yes// (Yes) Include COMPUTED fields: (N/Y/R/B): NO// BOTH Computed Fields and Record Number (IEN) NUMBER: 1 DOMAIN NAME: HUIOPENVISTADEV.PACIFICHUI.NET BOX-VOLUME PAIR: AKC:greenlawn PORT: 9210 STATUS: STOPPING TYPE OF LISTENER: New Style CONTROLLED BY LISTENER STARTER: YES I didn't try Port 9210, nor did I set this. Is there a precedence for RPC BROKER port assignments? I stop and restarted the Broker at port 9200 and bam.. it connected immediately. The other thing I noticed was that one needs to have either local DNS running or be sure to include the hostname in the /etc/hosts file, otherwise you'll have problems, at least on Debian/Linux, with setting your UCI/Volume set. Once I set it: greenlawn:/home/ibk/log/vista/cprs_connect# cat /etc/hosts 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.0.45 greenlawn # The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts ::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback fe00::0 ip6-localnet ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix ff02::1 ip6-allnodes ff02::2 ip6-allrouters ff02::3 ip6-allhosts installation and starting the various services worked. -- Ismet B.
