Subject: Re: [HECnet] PDXVAX - 40MB Memory - VAXstation 4000/VLC?
Couple of additions to the list:
1.403 - RHESUS - HP Integrity rx2600 running OpenVMS 8.3-1H1
1.404 - SAMDEV - Random development node, might be anything from a
SIMH VAX to Linux
1.405 - ARIVAX - SIMH-VAX running OpenVMS 8.3
1.410 - FIDOGW - Ubuntu 9.04 (on VMware) with DECNET, running
Fidonet-
HECnet mail gateway.

Well, on my list for one.

Nobody sent me any corrections ...

Obviously no one sent me any either. ;-)

Oh, and all my nodes (including CHIMP) are based in London, England - none are in Finland anymore.

Where is PDXVAX still noted as a 4000/VLC? The fans went out before everything went crazy for us. It's been a 4000/60 for a while now.
No idea on the RAM requirements for ALL-IN-1. My big problem is that it doesn't seem to want to install on modern versions of OpenVMS/Alpha. You now have me thinking about how I could install it on PDXVAX.

OK, so I managed to answer my own question with this query on PDXVAX:
$ write sys$output f$getsyi("HW_NAME")
VAXstation 4000-60
I guess the VLC got replaced at some point (have to say that the box did
feel a little quick for a VLC :)

Would appear to be only one way to find out...

I recently came across this: "RFC1762 - The PPP DECnet Phase IV Control Protocol (DNCP)" -- (http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc1762.html)
What kind of software/hardware supports this? Anyone interested in having a play if it's deployable with reasonable effort?
Sampsa
Good idea - done!

The obvious thing to add is a HECNETINFO command, that displays this file on a given host - we want this information to be easily accessible from the DCL side as well rather than just the Web, I think.
Could it be as simple as (predicated upon you having this command in the DECNet default directory):
@CHIMPY::HECNETINFO <nodname>
Users could also copy it locally if they saw fit.

Lets call it for what it is - "legacy" is a term that people use in a
polite but derogatory manner to imply that the future direction they
prefer is not that which they view as the current direction.
