If you're using IDL 3.6, you'll need to restore the 3.5 rpc directory -
apparently there's a (known) but in the code. The c code is quite short
so you could get your supplier to E-mail it to you.
I could, if asked nicely.

The programs (in idl/rpc/examples) worked here using IDL 3.5, an
unpatched Solaris 2.3 and gcc-2.5.8. I didn't do anything
special. Also my own program worked. I haven't tried IDL 3.6 yet.

I'm sorry to say that I've experienced exactly the same behaviour on
a DEC Alpha with DEC OSF/1 V2.0, so I'm not so sure the problem
is your machine. I haven't had time to look closely at the problem,
and I was a bit put off when the examples didn't work.
It would be nice to hear if anyone has actually made it work.
