Two things must be true for the

.logon hostname.fully.qualified/myuser, mypass

form to work:

1) you must be able to resolve "hostnamecop1.fully.qualified" to the correct IP address; ping that name to verify. (Since you are getting error 224, I suspect this is the problem.)

2) you must be running in "batch mode" with input redirected via "<" on the command line or .RUN command; "interactive mode" with stdin coming from the console / keyboard requires you to press enter after the username and allow BTEQ to prompt for the password.

The clispb.dat "i_dbcpath=" should only affect these forms:

.logon myuser .logon myuser, mypass

I believe you said you were using Windows NT client. Maybe your "hosts file" has the wrong name or is in the wrong location? Run the following from a command prompt to double check:

notepad %systemroot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts.

(Be sure to include the trailing ".")
