Well - I dug a bit deeper - looked at TCPRUN EXEC, etc.. :type. and .class do seem to be required to modify server entries. In fact - the section in TCPIP Planning and Admin section on 'Customizing Servers' shows several examples all specify :type and :class.
I think where we both were confused is in Step 2 of 'Configuring the REXEC Server'.. it shows what looks like a :nickname entry, but is actually a list of tags that are recognized for REXEC. To modify those tags, you still need to create an entry using :nick, :type, and :class. So - not a bug.. maybe a candidate for a reader comment? It's spelled out in the 'DTCPARMS File Format' section that: Every entry must include either a :Type.Server or a :Type.Class definition. Entries that define a server using a :Type.Server definition must also include a :Class. tag and value to identify the class to which that server belongs. It certainly slipped by me though in looking at your DTCPARMS entry!
