Or not?
A colleague of mine had the same problem resently. We both had installed
KIP & CAP on our systems, but getzones failed only on his.
We both used the new ddprange. The only difference was that
I got the names from the CAP documentation and he from the kip documentation.
After carefully rereading both 'KIP Installation instructions' [K] and
'CAP installation procedure'[C] we found the following:
[C, page 1, bottom line]
... "at-nbp", "at-rtmp", "at-echo", "at-zis". ....
^
[K,section DDP START RANGE]
In April, 1988, the NIC assigned a range of ports for using by KIP for
"static" or "well known" assignments. In particular it assigned:
201 - AT-RMTP
....
206 - AT-ZIS
.... ^
[K, 15 lines down]
Following are the entries for /etc/services
....
at-zip 206/udp # udp: zip
^
It seemed to me that the last one is a typo.
But is there someone who knows[NIC?] and can tell whether to apply
the patch (as Tim suggested) or change the /etc/services entry (as I did)?
