What were you trying to do?
Trying to set up ytalk and also talk between computers. Zwrite to another computer.
What's wrong:
Unable to do it. Star computers do not even acknowledge ytalk's existence and they refuse to connect using talk, to a Digital computer or to another Star computer. Also I was able to zwrite to one computer but not to another. The OLC was able to employ talk to the computer that I could not talk to and that computer was able to zwrite to the computer to which I was unable to zwrite to.
What should have happened:
We should have been able to connect the computers through either of the talk commands and I should have been able to zwrite to any computer in the Athena cluster.
