Johnny,
After the "define node"s in FIX.COM without "set node" I thought it would
be easiest to reboot, which gave errors reading the data base, and I think
this happened because the executor data had also been purged. After setting
the executor data, I could define all nodes.

Ok. Done. For VMS users, just grab MIM::FIX.COM, and run it under DCL,
with appropriate privileges, and you'll have an up-to-date nodename
database.
Johnny
Thanks.

Nope. (This on a VMS box with a rather outdated nodename database):

That cause an error when you try and set it.
You need to clear nodes where you see that error.
By the way, I could do a generic clear in the VMS command procedure, before starting the defines. Would people prefer that?

Grab the file SG1::[DECNET]NU2.COM. Ignore the errors. It does depend on MIM being defined as 1.13. This procedure makes use of the file MIM::DU4:[DECNET]NODENAMES.DAT. Johnny creates this file for this procedure. I will not update your area nodes - that is your responsibility. It can be run interactively or via batch. It must be run from a priv'd account.
