1. (UNIX/LINUX) A-Shell was failing to recognize the IP address of a telnet session when the client machine name was resolved to a fully qualified domain name (e.g. like jack.company.com) unless there was an alias for the short name (e.g. "jack") in the /etc/hosts file. Note that A-Shell always checks the /etc/hosts file prior to the DNS when trying to resolve your workstation name. Also note that you can retrieve your IP address using XCALL CONDEV or display it by launching A-Shell with the -d switch. (This will also log a few entries to ashlog.log which can be useful in debugging cases where it is failing to recognize your IP address.
