This may also be significant.  The 4 processes that start talk to each
other with sockets and do a name lookup from the local name server.
This is saying that the TV lock daemon subroutine zssslk looked up
alcyone and could not find it.  The TV lock daemon and the XAS,
message server and TEK server are unlikely to work in that case
although the latter should get much further along before failing.

Either your name service needs to catch up to your machine's name or
you can change it to LOCALHOST.  That change is a bot messy:
   1.  Change LAPTOP to YES in LOGIN.CSH and LOGIN.SH
   2.  Add LOCALHOST to HOSTS.LIST
   3.  in $AIPS_ROOT/DA00 make a symbolic link
           ln -s ALCYONE LOCALHOST
   4.  Also make symbolic links to your data areas with the name
LOCALHOST rather than ALCYONE and edit $AIPS_ROOT/DA00 files
DADEVS.LIST and NETSP to have the LOCALHOST data areas.
