--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    When an RPC program running over DECNET under VAX/VMS exits with
    error "network partner exited", this is due to a problem on the
    remote node.  It is therefore necessary to look at the log file
    for the remote task, not for the one which reported "network partner
    exited".
    
    If the remote task was started automatically, with a .COM file
    with the same name as the decnet object, then the log file will
    be NETSERVER.LOG.  If, when invoking the remote task you quoted
    a username and password (like  VXCRNA"user password'::"0=MYTASK")
    then the logfile will be in that user's default directory - otherwise
    it will be in directory [DECNET].  Look through the logfile to find
    the problem which that task had.
    
    At this point, the problem may be obvious.  If not, see if the error
    reported is discussed in this scheme.  If it is an RPC error, then
    youy might be able to shed more light on it by setting a trace on.
    To do this, include the statement
    		$ define rpc_trace_flag sys$output:
    early on in the .COM file which is run automatically.
