Sorry, Alastair. I've been rather busy, but I did see your mails. I'll get to it later today, I hope.
Anyway, the config looks ok. If you are available later today/tonight, we could try get you up and running...

G'day,
I'll send here because I suspect my emails late last week to Mr Bilquist
may have been consigned to a junk mail folder. I wanted to (please)
apply for a HECnet address initially for one my main VAX at home, later
the 11's after I get some more time to work on the hardware.
I managed to get the bridge software to compile under IRIX 6.5.29 via
GCC 4.6. MIPSPro refused with a couple of trivial errors. I believe I
have the config file correctly set up and the ports.
The relevant bits of my conf look like:
!START
[bridge]
local ec0
update tempo.update.uu.se:4711
[decnet]
local
update
[lat]
local
update
!EOF
Port 4711 is forwarded to my system correctly through firewalls. My
external static ip is 202.168.106.176/ns4.reboot.net.au
Suggestions/constructive abuse welcome :)
Regards,
Al.

You can create a virtual terminal for CGI task and pass data through
terminal I/O :)
Oh well, another wasted night and I now have a rough CGI interface to my
web server...
Anyone curious should just ask me how to do things for now. It's not at
all difficult, but it's also not properly finished yet. But there is a
page linked from the home page on madame which have dynamic content.
And after a bunch of additional wasted hours, I now have working CGI
using both GET and POST for RSX.
It's pretty simply, really. The best example is in
MIM::US:[BQT]PUBLIC.HTM. Notice lines that have targets starting with CGI:
Those give programs that will be run. The program will be run logged in
to a virtual terminal, and logical names will be set up for various
pieces of information.
The program is expected to output lines that are to be in the header of
the response first, followed by an empty line, and after that it's all
HTML.
With a GET, the arguments will be in an logical name.
With a POST, the values will be fed to the input of the CGI program. One
line at a time, where each line is defined as the splitting point by the
'&' character. When all input data have been processed, you get an EOF,
and then you start outputting data as above.
Two short examples:
http://madame.update.uu.se/~bqt/test1 (uses GET)
http://madame.update.uu.se/~bqt/test2 (uses POST)
The actual programs run are MIM::US:[BQT]TESTF1.CMD and TESTF2.CMD,
which are both just IND programs. Really simple. You can, of course,
write your programs in any language you like.
Also, at this writing, the following logical names are defined:
HTTP_CONTENT
HTTP_HOST
HTTP_METHOD
HTTP_REFERER
HTTP_UAG
HTTP_URI
REMOTE_ADDR
REMOTE_PORT
Try the test programs, look at the sources, and play around. Bug reports
are as always welcome.
And I forgot
QUERY_STRING
(if it's a GET...)

Thanks for bursting the bubble on the myth!

There was a slogan, but it was actually "Nothing sucks like an Electrolux".
Someone got creative since both VAX and Electrolux made vacuum cleaners, and now we had the VAX computer - it was just a small change to the slogan...
