The top lines tell me that you are running on a relatively recent Mac.

I do not know what the locale is about - that string does not occur in 
XAS.SHR or the MS and TK servers.

The last is an error return from the system service gethostbyname which 
has asked your operating system to locate your dreg36 machine in 
internet lists.  It must work to set up tables to make an internet 
enabled socket.  Often local machines especially laptops are not known 
in such lists.  Use the TV=local option unless you need another machine 
on the internet to also use the TV on dreg36.
