PROBLEM #1 (19 OCT 1989) EVA HATCHERSON:

  CKLEMAN@AEGIS-DAHLGREN was not receiving mail from VANN@TROUT.NOSC.MIL.
In fact, after further investigation, it was found that our node could not
communicate with their node at all.  Maria Rachko called me to inform me
(703-892-0008).

SOLUTION #1:

  Contacted Debbie Futcher (DFUTCHE@NSWC-OAS.ARPA via MILNET mail).  We
needed to set up a geteway in the following way.

  1)  Make sure ther following entry is in the file [NETDIST.ETC]HOST:

         26.0.0.104        DCED-MILNET-GW.ARPA    MILDEC

  2)  Execute the following command, and make sure its in STARTINET so it
will be done automatically done at login:

         ROUTE  ADD  DEFAULT  DCEC-MILNET-GW.ARPA    1

PROBLEM #2 (04 AUG 1989)

  The host name was changed for the local node and the host table was updated.
However when mail is sent to a remote node it appears to the receiver that the
sending node has not changed its name.


SOLUTION #2

  The host name is set with the HOSTNAME command.  At boot time it is set from
within the command file STARTINET.COM in the directroy [netdist.misc].  The host
name should be changed in the STARTINET.COM file so that it will be correct at
boot time and may be done interactively to correct the problem without a reboot.
