Yes, but they are Legato confidential so I can't share them.
If You believe You are having the trouble with that, contact
folks at Legato or Your support company.  Sometimes an error
will look like:
'nsrexecd: could not contact nsrexec, using rsh' 
'Connection refused' 
'Connection not available, Port 2 not reserved' 

... and sometimes slightly different.  You will see this with
older clients for Mac, VMS and SunOS and those BSDish ports.
Same applies to older NW code.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,
Hrvoje

Do you have more detail about the bug?  For example, a tech doc or
some sort of detail?

Thanks.
