Hi Guys,
Does anyone have media for a Digital or Oracle version of RDB for a VAX
running VMS 7.3?
The Oracle website provides downloads for Alpha and Itanium, but not
VAX.
Thanks, Mark.

Although I didn't manage to chat to you while I was there, yours was by far
my favourite stand at VCF UK. It was great to come across some VAXen in a
sea of home computers (which don't really interest me a great deal, to be
honest). I was rather amused to see two guys wondering why Unix commands
weren't working on an OpenVMS system :)
I've been subscribed to this list for years and seeing your machines has
finally given me the kick I need to dig out a VAX, reinstall OpenVMS and
get connected to HECNET.
(Resending this as I don't think my original reply got through due to using
an address not subscribed to the list).

Hi All
We had a wierd case of SATA controller problems that took the server
down and it refused to boot. Getting a new controller took a day, but
since about 22:00 yesterday the machine is back up.
I wish I could report on these things when it happens, but my mail and
this mailing list is running on that machine :)
Regards,
Pontus

That reminds me of the last iteration of my home server. Postgresql wasn't
ever setup to automatically start, so every power outage I had to remember
to manually start it.
I fixed it when I replaced that machine with a new one. Now pgsql starts at
boot. YEARS later. :-D

Confirmed, my side is working now..

I've been talking to Steve Davidson and it crossed my mind that if we
use multinet to connect we won't need a separate unix box as we wouldn't
require Johnny's bridge. Is that correct? Might be worth going through
the motions if you have time, (a) to get the process documented and (b)
to provide a good fallback strategy if option 1 using the bridge to
connect through to you doesn't work.
I know this wasn't meant for the list, but I had some questions anyway. :-D
I've got a new colo server in place which means I could actually run simh on
my colo box (which would be a good machine for a "hub" of some kind) and I
was wondering about the multinet thing myself. I can't get simh its own IP
address, so I would need to do port forwarding to get this to work. Is that
possible? Does the multinet tunneling stuff work over static ports or does it
use dynamic ports?
Also, I would want to setup the bridge as well. Are there any direction on
setting the bridge program up to talk directly to simh?
Thanks!

As Fred has said port 700 is all yo need to deal with Multinet. The bridge
allows you to configure whatever port you need.
Here I run a VS3900 on SIMH on NetBSD as well as the bridge all on one lowly
little P3-667Mhz. I am running a VS4000/VLC with Multinet. The Multinet
box can deal with dynamic IP addresses at the other end, in fact it does so
automatically so it has become noise.
If you need specifics, contact me offline and we can go from there.

Multinet uses port 700/udp. Port forwarding works, as this is how I do
it on area 33.
Ah, excellent! Thanks.

To quote a movie "That's not my area" ... (so I won't comment) :)
Well then, I'll wait for someone who's area it is to answer. :-D
