[daip] AIPS on a 64bit machine

[Bill Junor]

Thanks, ERic.

   I had checked that DA00 existed --- and it does.  But I think you are 
on to the problem --- I haven't specified the site name correctly.  I'm 
so used to just invoking a single name on my machine at home rather than 
a qualified domain name e.g. "blackhole.lanl.gov" rather than 
"blackhole".  Let me explore this first.

              Thanks,  B.
