Hello!
I'm kind of new to GNATS... So please help me!
Why does the Emacs (lisp) interface for 'edit-pr' give me the following
message:
______________________
cd /usr/local/share/gnats/gnats-db/gnats-adm/
nquery-pr --host gnats --user anonymous --passwd guest
nquery-pr: gnats: No such host
query-pr exited abnormally with code 1 at Thu Dec 2 15:25:59
______________________
I've got to say that the 'normal' edit-pr works all right!
What is 'nquery-pr' and how do you configure it?? (host, passwd and so
on?..)
Thanx a lot!
Cristian

nquery-pr is a batch program that talks to the gnatsd daemon across a
network. query-pr accesses gnats files directly on disk (or nfs).
These emacs variables are in gnats.el:
(defvar gnats:network-server "gnats"
"*If non-nil, names the GNATS network server for remote queries and
editing.")
(defvar gnats:alias nil
"*If non-nil, names the alias assigned to the GNATS database.")
(defvar gnats:userid "anonymous"
"*Userid for accessing the GNATS network server for remote queries and
editing.")
(defvar gnats:password "guest"
"*Password for accessing the GNATS network server for remote queries and
editing.")
If you don't have gnatsd set up, I think you would:
(setq gnats:network-server nil)
