James,
you can try
NETCONTROL NET=*name*;update=INTERNET
Let us know if it works.

I am trying to ping from my HP3000 and getting the following error
when doing so:
:ping public.domain.tld
-------- PING/XL (ICMP Echo Requestor) : Version B0700001 --------
Invalid IP address.
but using the dotted quad IP address instead reaches the target:
:ping aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd

Now, this tells me that there is a problem with DNS and so I checked
the file RESLVCNF.NET.SYS and, lo and behold, the old nameserver
addresses had not been updated since our last IP address move! So, I
changed the nameserver entries to reflect the proper addresses of our
DNS servers but the problem persists. Do I need to stop and restart
some process to make MPE/ix pick up the changes I made to
RESLVCNF.NET?
Regards,
Jim
