Hi Ariez,

Hmm, from your screenshot of the NPM config in Mercury, I think that
your host IP address differs there from what you've entered in the
z39.50 source definition.  So I'd verify that is correct.  I tried to
duplicate the settings from the document, but perhaps we're being
blocked from outside Malaysia (I'm in US, currently)

Record format, I'm not sure, maybe set to "FI" like the other sources
presently to try out.

As for the attribute definitions, I would start by copying what it's
set from "loc" since those seem to map against the search attribute
definitions you're searching for in the other document.  There may be
other changes required, but it's hard to test from our end of things.

If anyone else has suggestions for z39.50 source configurations, feel
free to chime in.
