Hoss: >From the information I have read on this parm, the zero is an internal versioning mechanism that may be for future use. The Lotus Yellowbooks for system administration list the entry syntax as: [TCPIP-PORTNAME]_TcpIpAddress=0,[TCPIP-ADDRESS]:[PORT-NUMBER] They offer no explanation of the zero or any other values that position may have. --------------------- Kevin E.

This will always hit the 400 host table first before going out to a remote name server. This could also be an issue however, if you have an entry in the host table AND one on DNS...you would need to update both locations if something changes. It is also recommended that besides making sure you specify the TCP address specifically (which I would think you have done by saying that each server has its own address) in the notes.ini file - for example: TCPIP_TcpIpAddress=0,10.23.224.170:1352 Lastly it is further recommended that you do have host table entries not only for the fully qualified name of the 400 but also the Domino servers. This avoids confusion if your remote DNS servers may not have totally updated with new info or you have a cache issue. For internal system communications, the host table is better than a remote server. In fact certain parts of MGTC may fail simply due to the fully qualified name of the 400 not being in that host table. </SNIP>
