D'oh!
As for the second part, does it mean that the queue manager isn't running on my machine, or the distant one, as local mail seem to work fine.

This is probably my fault, so what am I doin wrong?

I would like to know the cable spec (how many cores, flat or round,

end cross over or not).
The "normal" DEC cables are flat. 6 wires. Always crossed (that is, crimp each end "upside down" compared to the other").
The exact nature of the separate cables inside I'm slightly unsure of, but I'm pretty sure it is multistranded.

Where did you order the crimper from? I have only been able to find very
expensive crimpers I cannot justify buying.
I have a crimper, but did not know that you could still get new MMJ plugs.

I used it a few times [SMTP <> MAIL11 gateway] and enjoyed it.
Ok, I'll look at setting it up again this afternoon. Maybe
I can get you to help me set up an RSX system in exchange.

Bob, (and Johnny),
If you give me the info I will setup this end (on Sunday) for hecnet.org
such that it points as follows:
<username>@<HECnet-nodename>.hecnet.org

Hi,
After reading the real experts discussing about the difficulties one has to expect generating a 11M (no plus) system I wanted to test it first hand and I've (almost) successfully sysgene'd from scratch a RSX11M 4.6 system from its tape distribution. I said "almost" because I've run into 2 little problems, one of those probably coming from my lack of knowledge about RSX itself...
1) I get no "REMove" task built. I've tried a SYSGEN3 and it doesn't get built either. I wonder if that task is absent from the "standard function" system and I will have to do a fully customized SYSGEN.
2) Even being logged on a privileged account I can't write anything under [1,54] unless I SET /UIC first. I get a privilege violation error when I try to PIP something if I have any other default directory. That causes installation scripts to fail (I've tried to install F77 and it aborts when it tries to copy the OTS and the compiler task. My SYSUID is set to [1,54]. I guess I'm missing something but have no clue about what is it.
If I can overcome these problems I plan to publish the installation log to help anyone wanting to do the same...

You can't take the default on *all* questions, since some don't have ny
defaults.
The CSR and vector for the terminal lines, for example... :-)
You're right - I did have to enter the address for that one.
Simh is rather simple minded about the terminal muxes - it considers the
DZ11/DZV11/DZQ11/CYX08/CXY16 all to be the same. Although the hardware is
different as far as I know they all have the same programmer model so this
is not unreasonable. The only thing that differs is the number of lines per
board, and simh allows you to set that.
And the only floating vector in this configuration, AFAIK, is the DZ/CXY
and 300 is the first one, right?
FWIW I did a VMS SYSGEN (which, among other things allows you to enter a
list of devices and will calculate for you the correct CSR/vector
assignments) and it agrees with simh in that regard. It particular, it says
160100 and vector 300 for the DZ11. As far as I know the PDP-11 and VAX
rules for address and vector assignments are the same, but it's possible RSX
does something different. It's suspicious that the default answer for the
first DZ11 in the RSX SYSGEN is not the same as the default floating address
assignment.
The other devices (MSCP disk, MSCP tape, NI) are all their default
addresses for the first such device.
You really need to make sure your hardware is correctly configured before
you can expect ACF to work.
Sure, but that's the whole question. I think this is the correct
configuration unless you can see what's wrong.
The other possibility that there's some hardware in there that this
version of ACF doesn't know about.
I guess I could do another SYSGEN and just take out the DZ/CXY from the
simh configuration. That's easy enough to do.
Bob
