[this is from John Kohl]
System name:		podge
Type and version:	KN01 7.1H (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		PM-MONO

What were you trying to do?
	look at the DECnet node database.

What's wrong:
	The mkserv stuff botched the symlinks to /var/dnet:

podge# cd /usr/lib/dnet
/usr/lib/dnet: No such file or directory
podge# cd /usr/lib
podge# pwd
/var/server/usr/lib
podge# ls -l dnet
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root           11 Aug 11 14:52 dnet -> ../var/dnet
podge# ls -l ../
total 10
drwxrwxr-x  3 root         2560 Aug 11 14:53 athena
drwxr-xr-x  2 root         2560 Aug 11 14:52 etc
drwxr-xr-x  2 root         4096 Aug 11 14:52 lib
podge#


What should have happened:
	I believe the link in /var/server/usr/lib should point to /var/dnet.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	?
