[McIDAS #AIN-927620]: diagnosing issue with ADDE server



Hi Robert,

re:
> It's working now.  Somehow .mcenv got deleted.  I restored it and all is well.

Excellent!  So, all you had to do was convert the inetd.conf entry created by
mcinet2006.sh using inetconv and make it active using svccfg; correct?

Please confirm that you did _not_ need to make any modification to 
~mcidas/bin/mcservsh.
Again, I was forced to make a change on our Solaris x86 10 system 
goessouth.unidata.ucar.edu.

My advice is to not do the modification until you prove to yourself that it is 
needed.
The recommendation to increase the maximum shared memory segment size was based 
on
older Solaris distributions that only allowed for 1 MB of shared memory out of 
the box.
This very small amount did not support the user running McIDAS sessions with 
multiple
frames of reasonable size.

No worries.  I am very interested in other Solaris 10 users experiences in 
installing
McIDAS-X/-XCD and remote ADDE access. (i.e., please don't forget to answer the 
question
above :-)

The nice thing about the IDV is that you can learn a lot from the online 
workshop
materials and the built in Users Guide.  I would recommend that you download it
and play around to get a feel for what is possible.  I would also recommend that
you read the manual 'cause there is a lot more there than meets the eye!

Cheers,

Tom
