problem while creating logon group in sapgui

[Former Member]

Dear all,

To create logon group in SAP GUi, I am trying with group options

When we hit the generate list with proper entries, in some machines

It is showing login groups. But in some machine it will show

sapmsPRD message not reachable or unknown.

We try with service file (in local machine), we enter

The port sapmsPRD 3600 or sapmsPRD 3200

The above technique is success in some machine in some machine is not.

Regards,

satish

You need to enter in the services file

sapms<SID>      3600/tcp

If you use DNS in an active Directory domain you may need to

ipconfig /flushdns

to make the local system re-read its service file.

Hi,

if you are not using DNS Server than you have to make following entry in services file on all windows hosts where SAP GUI installsed

sapmsSID tab 36<installation number>/tcp

or just change services file (/windows/system32/drivers/etc) on your local windows machine and distribute this file on other windows hosts.

Please enter the correct line in the services file and try again.

Satish.

insert a few blank lines after your entry.

if it was the last entry and no blank lines are inserted after, it ignores that last line.

markus,

services entries are not related to DNS at all and directly readed by getservbyname() etc.

ipconfig /flushdns won't help with the services...
