                      -< "No privilege" with *XXX.DECNET >-
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    If you are running a server under decnet, using a wildcard
    address, such as *XXXX.DECNET, then the system can complain
    about lack of privilege for two reasons.
    
    The first is simple: you are asking to create a decnet object
    with name XXXX, and you need SYSNAM privilege to do that.
    
    The second is a little stranger.  You should not put a colon in the
    decnet object name.  This is because the RPC system will create a
    mailbox with the same name as the decnet object, and a mailbox name
    with a colon in it is read as being a request for a mailbox in shared
    (multiprocessor) memeory, and to get one of those you need some shared
    memory and SHMEM privilege. Don't go and get SHMEM - just remove the
    colon from the object name.
