I asked them about this, and they were going to look at it, but as my rel.2
hasn't arrived yet I don't know if they did anything...

It might depend on the tcp/ip package in use on VMS anyway. I think the latest

probably make it work. Don't know about UCX (which would probably just crash
anyway :-)
