     ERRNET(2)                                               ERRNET(2)

     NAME
          errnet - network error indicator

     SYNOPSIS
          extern int errnet;

     HP-UX COMPATIBILITY
          Level:    HP-UX/NON-STANDARD

          Origin:   HP

     DESCRIPTION
          Errnet is an external variable whose value is set whenever a
          networking  error  occurs. The value can be used to obtain a
          description of the error.  The value  of  errnet  should  be
          checked  whenever  an  error  occurs and errno has the value
          [ENET].

          The following list describes the  errnet  values  and  their
          names and meanings:

          * 256 NE_INTERNAL
               Internal error.  Contact qualified HP personnel.

          257 NE_NETSTATE
               1. Network needs to be powered up before a request  can
               be fulfilled.
               2. Network is already powered up and cannot be  powered
               up again without re-booting the system.

          258 NE_BADFILE
               Network file is bad.

          259 NE_HARDWARE
               Hardware failure. The failure could  be  in  the  HP-IB
               card  connected  to  the  2285A  LAN  Unit,  in the LAN
               Interface, in the transceiver or in any of the cables.

               The network may have been powered up with the wrong  or
               a non-existent LAN Interface card.

          261 NE_TIMEOUT
               A LAN operation has timed out.
               For some IPC and diagnostic operations, you can set the
               timeout  value.   If this error occurs, check to see if
               the other system is up,  and  if  a  corresponding  IPC
               process on the remote system exists.

          262 NE_PROTOVIOL
               Network protocol violation has occurred.  If this error
               occurs frequently, contact qualified HP personnel.

     ERRNET(2)                                               ERRNET(2)

          263 NE_NOSERV
               Requested service is not supported.

          264 NE_NOREMOTE
               Series 500:  Specified remote system cannot be found in
               the  network directory. Series 200 or 300:  Remote node
               does not respond to a connection request.
               The node may not be powered  up  or  connected  to  the
               network.

          265 NE_CONNLOST
               Connection to a remote system was lost  or  aborted  by
               the other system.
               The other system may have shut down.

          266 NE_NOCONNECT
               1. IPC connection attempt failed.
               2. Source system for a  network  file  transfer  cannot
               make the specified connection.

          267 NE_NOPROD
               Network cannot find the producer node.

          268 NE_NOCONS
               Network cannot find the consumer node.

          269 NE_RSRCPROD
               Network producer node is out of resources.

          270 NE_RSRCCONS
               Network consumer node is out of resources.

          271 NE_RSRCREM
               1. Not enough available memory on a remote system.
               2. Network  memory  limit  on  the  remote  system  was
               exceeded.

          272 NE_NOLOGIN
               Specified login is invalid.

          273 NE_NOUSERS
               Limit for network service instances on the local system
               was exceeded.

          300 NE_DUPNAME
               Specified name already exists for a source socket.
               This error may indicate that a process is still running
               and  an  attempt  was  made  to run another copy of the
               process.

          301 NE_NONAME

     Hewlett-Packard               - 2 -             (printed 7/16/86)

     ERRNET(2)                                               ERRNET(2)

               Name specified for uipclookup could not be found.
               This error may indicate that the corresponding  process
               is  not  executing  or  has  not  yet  named its source
               socket.

          302 NE_SOCKDIED
               Virtual circuit connection was aborted.

          303 NE_CANTNAME
               An attempt was made to name a virtual circuit socket.

          304 NE_CONNPEND
               Request for an IPC connection was made but has not  yet
               been accepted.

          305 NE_DONTOWN
               A process attempted to erase the name of a socket  that
               it did not own.

          306 NE_NONBLOCK
               The IPC intrinsic could not complete without suspending
               execution of the current process.
               This situation results in an error if  the  socket  has
               been set to non-blocking mode with uipccontrol.

          350 NE_BADPROG
               A program specified by a urpmcreate call could  not  be
               executed for one of the following reasons:

                    1. Specified pathname is invalid.
                    2. User specified by the login parameter does  not
                    have execute permission.
                    3. File does not have a valid magic number.   This
                    may  mean that the specified file is a shellscript
                    or can only be executed on different hardware.
                    4. File is currently open for writing.
                    5. An I/O error occurred while attempting to  load
                    the file.

          All errnet values marked with an  asterisk  (*)  indicate  a
          serious  system problem which should be checked by qualified
          HP personnel.
