I have a project under source control and I'm using a dynamic view. This project uses sockets. When I run the program I get an exception using this line of code:

var addresses = Dns.GetHostAddresses(Dns.GetHostName());

I get a socket exception with the following information: Error Code: 11003 Message: "A non-recoverable error occurred during a database lookup" Socket Error Code: NonRecovery

I don't have this issue running locally or on another windows network share (non-Clearcase). I believe this is a security issue related to sockets and network drives. I have a workaround but would really like to resolve this issue. I'm on Windows 7.

The first workaround would be to use a snapshot view instead of a dynamic one.

That way, you would be directly on the C drive instead of an MVFS mount point.

If you have to use dynamic view, make sure it is being accessed through its full path (no subst, no setview): M:\myview\myVob\...

Finally, it can depend on your exact ClearCase version: with ClearCase 7.x, there was socket error on Windows before: see "Unable to run executable that opens a socket on Microsoft Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 or Windows 7"
