If you do not have a directory called /usr/OV/PD/cores, then you are behind
on maintenance. You need to obtain and apply U451880, the latest PTF
(Decemebr 1997). There may also be fixes in there for your other problems.

Hi James
I don't have a directory /usr/OV/PD, so I did a search on ipmap and cores
and came up empty handed. Maybe PD only applies to NetviewV5 not V4.
Thanks for your kind assistance and I really appreciate the effort and
knowledge you give this forum.
