Dear helpful people, 

Many thanks! But I'm not done yet :(

First of all,

Indeed the DADEVS.LIST syntax was wrong (its wrong in .AIPSRC too). I 
edited DADEVS.LIST by hand to say this:

-  /home/aips/AIPS/DATA/ANANYA_1
-  /home/aips/AIPS/DATA/ANANYA_3
-  /home/aips/AIPS/DATA/ANANYA_2

(I have assigned group-write (ie xw) permission to each level in
AIPS/DATA/ANANYA_*.)

SETPAR now gives a different error:

Once this works, I presume  I can remove 

rfe             5002/tcp                        # Radio Free Ethernet
rfe             5002/udp                        # Actually uses UDP only
 
from my /etc/services and instead insert 


sssin           5000/tcp        SSSIN      # AIPS TV server
ssslock         5002/tcp        SSSLOCK    # AIPS TV Lock
msgserv         5008/tcp        MSGSERV    # AIPS Message Server
tekserv         5009/tcp        TEKSERV    # AIPS TekServer
aipsmt0         5010/tcp        AIPSMT0    # AIPS remote FITS disk access
aipsmt1         5011/tcp        AIPSMT1    # AIPS remote tape 1

and will be done... 


Second of all, 

Although when install.pl queried me I specified APSIZE to be 80MB (as 
install.pl recommended), the current .AIPSRC shows 5MB. How do I check 
whether APSIZE has indeed been set to 80MB?

Thanks!
