Sorry if the subject seems vague, I'm not sure how best to word it. Essentially, I've noticed problems with certain forms of connection "statement" that have the "hostname:port" formation; tested with the KS10, PDP-11, VAX-11/750, and VAX-11/730 simulators (as my most used simulators are the DEC machines) the following I've tried do not work: * Multiplexer "Connect=host:port" Statements * DMC11/DMR11/DUP11/DPV11/KMC11 "Peer=host:port" Statements
For the multiplexers, attempting an "attach dz line=1,7000,connect=concordat:7500" (for example, with "concordat" being the hostname of my Debian laptop) immediately returns with: Invalid destination: concordat:7500 For the DMC et al. the "set dmc0 peer=localhost:8500" is accepted, however attempting to connect the specific line (e.g. attach dmc0 8000") will return: Invalid destination: LOCALHOST:8500 I'm unsure if this is an actual issue, or if this is user error on my part. My thoughts are leaning toward an issue, as this error is happening in three separate builds (natively on Windows 10, on a Windows 7 virtual machine, natively under Debian 9.12) under two build environments (Microsoft Visual Studio 10, gcc); the "show version" of the simulator closest at hand (my Debian laptop on which I am writing this e-mail) outputs: sim> show ver PDP-11 simulator V4.0-0 Current Simulator Framework Capabilities: 32b data 32b addresses Threaded Ethernet Packet transports:PCAP:TAP:VDE:NAT:UDP Idle/Throttling support is available Virtual Hard Disk (VHD) support RAW disk and CD/DVD ROM support Asynchronous I/O support (Lock free asynchronous event queue) Asynchronous Clock support FrontPanel API Version 12 Host Platform: Compiler: GCC 6.3.0 20170516 Simulator Compiled as C arch: x64 (Release Build) on Apr 9 2020 at 23:39:49 Build Tool: simh-makefile Memory Access: Little Endian Memory Pointer Size: 64 bits Large File (>2GB) support SDL Video support: SDL Version 2.0.5, PNG Version 1.6.28, zlib: 1.2.8 PCRE RegEx (Version 8.39 2016-06-14) support for EXPECT commands OS clock resolution: 1ms Time taken by msleep(1): 1ms Ethernet packet info: libpcap version 1.8.1 OS: Linux concordat 4.9.0-12-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.210-1 (2020-01-20) x86_64 GNU/Linux git commit id: f9883668 git commit time: 2020-04-04T09:49:15-0700 Testing with the March 10th pre-built executables for Windows does not have the problem.
