I've uploaded a picture of me (doing something stupid, obviously) to CHIMPY::[.DROPBOX]SAMPSA1.SIXEL
There is also a SAMPSA2.SIXEL, I can't recall what the difference between the files is...

Daniel.
Yup and since the inbound number is a GSM DATA number, there's none of that annoying modem handshaking going on.
Oh I'm still stuck in Egypt (Al Qaida blew up the State Security office I was meant to go to in Al Tour to get my exit visa)..
I'm just planning future features for the HILANT:: cluster :)

Hello!
Sampsa where are you based at the moment? Looking at what you posted,
I guess I'm a bit surprised.

Yeah, that's the way to go. I'm tempted to buy an ancient Nokia GSM phone, get a data number for it and a serial adapter, and plug it into my DS300..9600 bps dial up access, woo hoo!
Hmm, looks like the Nokia 9210 can combine several GSM channels for thruput up to 38400 bps with the right configuration and it's effectively an ISDN connection (V.110). I think I need to acquire one of these, data line subscriptions are cheap in Finland and the phone costs about 50 GBP...

Oh.. I thought that somehow LAT was routable over DECnet. I thought I remember in the old days some remote sites just had a terminal server and a couple of terminals. Many beers ago.
You could, using bridging (which needs to be enabled at both ends of the link). Although, that is just yuck. I remember some absolutely horrendous examples of bridging in the old days.
So, I could go from the DECserver to my local vax, and then bounce out?
That's it.

Maybe because BQT's bridge does LAT in addition to DECNET frames..

My DS300 does inbound Telnet as well as inbound/outbound LAT and serial :)
No DECNET as far as I know.
I don't recall a DECserver that talks DECnet. It is the wrong protocol for that type of communication. DECservers originally only spoke LAT, which was developed specifically for local area communications (which it does very well).

You can set RWE for world set on the directory by default, but have a script periodically set all files to w:RE only. There's probably a better way to do it, though.
OK, I've set it up.
The HECnet "intranet" read/write repository can be found on CHIMPY::[.DROPBOX].
Feel free to copy anything there that you think might be of interest to other HECnetters.

As the files are periodically not secured as W:RE, please guys, try to behave :)
Tragedy of the Commons and all that. If this service leads to abuse and/or
fighting about its use I'll just take it down :)
