[Hardhats-members] Home Device Does Not Exist

I am installing Vista with Cache 5 on Windows 2003.

The problem I am having is with step 43. I am getting the message:

HOME DEVICE DOES NOT EXIST IN THE DEVICE FILE

PLEASE CONTACT YOUR SYSTEM MANAGER!

TRY LATER

From what I have read this is a common problem. I read the fix in the Wiki, which is as follows:

input the name of the device printed above (between the << and >> )
if it is found, make sure the field SIGN-ON/SYSTEM DEVICE: is set to YES
if it is not found, decide if the DEVICE should be a virtual device or not, and then add it to the VA FileMan DEVICE File.

This did not fix my problem.

I read through the mail list archives. I tried this:

VA FileMan 22.0

Select OPTION: 1 ENTER OR EDIT FILE ENTRIES

INPUT TO WHAT FILE: OPTION// DEVICE (38 entries)

EDIT WHICH FIELD: ALL//

Select DEVICE NAME: TELNET TELNET |TNT|

NAME: TELNET//

LOCATION OF TERMINAL: TELNET//

Select MNEMONIC:

LOCAL SYNONYM:

$I: |TNT|// /dev/pts

VOLUME SET(CPU):

SIGN-ON/SYSTEM DEVICE: YES//

TYPE: VIRTUAL TERMINAL//

SUBTYPE: C-VT320// C-VT100

1 C-VT100 Digital Equipment Corporation VT-100 video

2 C-VT100HIGH Normal display of characters in BOLD !

CHOOSE 1-2: 1 C-VT100 Digital Equipment Corporation VT-100 video

ASK DEVICE: YES//

ASK PARAMETERS: YES// ??

On devices of TYPE 'TRM' and 'VTRM', this field controls

if the 'RIGHT MARGIN' question is asked after selecting the device.

On devices of TYPE 'MT', 'SDP', 'BAR', and 'OTH', this field controls

if the 'ADDRESS/PARAMETERS' question is asked after selecting the

device

Choose from:

1 YES

0 NO

ASK PARAMETERS: YES// ^

Also did not work. Does anyone have any other ideas? I realize I must be missing something pretty simple.

Thanks,

Alex
