Cause 3
—Service name conflict. This occurs when you have the same
service name and the same type (for example, file server). If the service is a
file service, then the user logging in might not have appropriate rights and,
consequently, the login is rejected.
Use the Services option in IPXCON to verify that the service has the
appropriate network number.
If the service and network numbers are both visible, refer to
Communication Occurs between Two Networks” on page 142
Cause 4
—Under rare circumstances, the server from which you are logging
in has insufficient space to store the service in the bindery.
Increase the disk space on the file server.
Cause 5
—If there are many services, a third-party router might be unable to
transmit the entire SAP table before the next periodic update. A third-party
router can start transmitting the services again from the beginning of the table,
instead of completing the current update.
Contact technical support.
Number of Routes and Services on a System Shows Local
Connectivity Only
The number of routes and services on a system shows that there is local
connectivity only.
Cause 1
—If the network to which the system is attached is an NLSP- only
network, and if the system is not configured for RIP mode only, then the
system might not receive RIP updates. If the following message is displayed
at the system console, there is a RIP mode misconfiguration and the two
routers cannot communicate:
Router server_name claims network number is really number
Turn on the tracking screens and check to determine whether there are any
RIP and SAP updates being sent to the server. If there are, it is possible
that you need RIP on the network but that you have set the RIP State
option to Off. You can check this by loading IPXCON (parameter path:
Select Circuits > select a circuit name). Check the RIP information to see
whether you have accidentally set RIP State to Off.
If you should be receiving RIP on the network but are not, it is possible
that the other routers on the network have been configured with RIP State
