Hi:
Can you tell me how put my Vax 4100 in my network?
I made a reboot in this system but I´m getting this message:

vax01> set host vax02


%SYSTEM-F-UNREACHABLE, remote node is not currently reachable

We can't tell you much until you tell us more.

What sort of network do you have? Thick wire Ethernet, thinwire
Ethernet, UTP Ethernet. . . ???

What networking software are you using? DECnet? TCP/IP? If the
latter, which TCP/IP stack are you using. Which version. Which version
of VMS?

Please see http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html

Is VAX02 defined in the namespace?

Yes, it must be. She/he would get a "Remote node is unknown"
error message if it weren't.

$ set ho titan
Remote node is not currently reachable
$ set ho xxxxx
Remote node is unknown

Are vax01 and vax02 even *conneted* to each other ?

What is VAX02 and which services are enabled there?

Well, all you've really told us is "it doesn't work" when you try
a DECnet terminal connection. I could spend a long time suggesting
reasons it might not work. Could you rule out a few?

I would think lack of definition would return a different error.

Of course, errant definition could contribute.

Alright, now show us the output of
a. ucx show version, and
b. ucx show service

Are both machines on the same subnet: 172....

FWIW, UCX V3.3 is just barely out of the dark ages of computing! VMS
V5.5-2 is the lowest version with Y2K support.

The last time I looked (years ago) UCX 5.x and VMS V7.x were current.
Is there some reason why you must run these antiques?

UCX V3.3 is something that anyone in his right mind wants to forget.
UCX V3.3 is one of the reasons that I'm no longer in my right mind!!!
If you have not installed ECO 13 (at least) SMTP, and perhaps other
services, will not work properly (or at all). Since UCX V3.3 has not
been supported at any time in the last eight years or so, you may find
it difficult to obtain a copy of ECO 13 for it!

OK... should have read "properly" defined.

For each node, assuming DECNET (set host):

$MC NCP
NCP> SHOW EXEC CHAR
NCP> SHOW KNOWN NODES

If you can post the output of those commands from both nodes, it may
help diagnose the problem.

Try

vax01> set host /telnet vax02

Why not just $ telnet vax02?

The version of UCX he is running is quite old. I would bet that his VMS
is old enough too not to have the /TELNET qualifier on the SET HOST com-
mand.

O.k. - dumb question time:

Did you add the startup of the network to the machine's startup
procedure?

It's not there by default in most VMS versions prior to V7.3 or possibly
even before V8.2. Dunno - I'm losing touch with some of the finer points
as I'm being sucked deeper into the UN*X world (which REALLY sucks!).
