Post From: Sub Instances Connect To The Wrong

I don't know what to tell you. The read-only parameter is off. However, it was connected to Inst1, or at least it appears that way since the instant I shut down Inst1, the two sub instances complain they are disconnected with the usual dialog box.

Anyhow, I will wait and see if turning off the DTC server in the two sub instances makes any difference, though I still have no idea why that would have anything to do with Inst1 or why it was even on in the first place. I've never looked at these settings in the 4 years I've used Sierra.

I wrote C and C++ code for 35 years and got burned several times telling QA that what they were describing was "impossible" :-)

It's not causing me any problems, just wanted to report it. Thanks for looking into it.
