For some reason when I test SATAN against VMS systems running either UCX or
Wollongong TCP/IP stacks the systems crash.
This seems to be true for the heavy test only. Other potentially
coincidental events include:
1. First test on a given node; when system reboots and a test
is again performed a successful test seems to be made.
2. The first test uses the FQDN and the second test uses the
IP address.
I have no idea where to look? The crash logs do not reveal anything helpful.
A message coming from SATAN says:
bin/udp_scan: are we talking to a dead host or network?
NOTE: The hosts were most certainly alive prior to the test.

Erik
