Re: DECnet/RSX Question

[Ed Calderon <ecc@cypress.com>]

In order to make keepable changes to node name information, you need to
run CFE, on file cetab.mac, the old node and name need to be cleared
and the new executor or other nodes can be entered.

You can add ncp statements to your startup.cmd, just like the ones you
mentioned.
Ultimately the file cetab.mac holds the host file, you can plain hack
at it,
it is fairly standard.
 notes:
The executor can not be in the list, only at the executor description.
Add nodes by just copying the existing description lines, observe
syntax.

hope this does it for you
