I got it to work.  I changed the entry in the interfaces file to the 
following effectively changing the dot notation to a server name.

symposium
        query tcp ether symposium 5000
        master tcp ether symposium 5000

The root problem may be the following warning when compiling.  I mentioned 
this in a previous thread.

util.c: In function `lookup_host':
util.c:90: warning: passing arg 1 of `getservbyname' discards `const' from 
point
er target type

Here is the portion of the man page for getservbyname on dgux:

       struct servent *getservbyname(name, proto)
       char *name, *proto;

This is the man page for gethostbyname on dgux:

       struct hostent *gethostbyname(name)
       const char *name;
