About this business of needing a r/w map open for r/o maps to work:

I have heard this rumor here before, but I have trouble believing that it
is working as designed.  Has anyone taken it up with support and been
officially notified that a stand-alone R/O map will not reflect status
correctly? I am just about positive that this has not always been the case,
and I don't see it documented as a feature....

If I were not getting status updates, I would suspect that the ipmap
process
for that user had failed, possibly due to insufficient ulimits.

I would appreciate word from anyone who has been given this information
by Support, as opposed to just observing what works and living with it.

(Now watch me get in trouble with Support for asking questions like
this....)

Cordially,

Mark,

If you do not have read/write access to the map it will not update unless
you do a map refresh.

I am attempting to have a NT client off a NetView for UNIX using Exceed.

I am sending the DISPLAY back to my NT desktop from the NetView for UNIX
server
, it displays OK and the Menus work, BUT, the maps or submaps do not update
with status changes. For example: Nodes is a critical state.

A  FILE-REFRESH MAP updates the screen.

A NetView session is already running when netview is executed from the
command line.
Has anyone attempted this or is this a known problem?
