I really hate to admit this, but it's been so long since I've run the bridge, that I don't remember how to start it. I know there is a new version, I've downloaded it and built it. Does anything need to be setup on tempo.update.uu.se? I'm currently trying to get VAX/VMS v5.5 running under SIMH, which I in turn have running under Ubuntu 11.10 which is running in Parallels Desktop 7 on Mac OS X 10.6.8 (I suspect I might be crazy for trying that combo).

Re: Any interest in Alpha software/documentation from March 2003?

I'm going to be migrating my virtual machines around and DUSTY will, at that point, no longer be running all the time. So, for those who may want to get these ISO files while I've got them temporarily around, please write to me directly and I'll give you a pointer. --Marc

Help requested with issue regarding file transfer...

by mark＠wickensonline.co.uk

Thanks Johnny, Yes, I got it sorted in the end, pretty much down to me not following instructions, but then the options weren't always obvious. The information is still very informative. Mark

Help requested with issue regarding file transfer...

by mark＠wickensonline.co.uk

Hi Steve, Yes, thanks. In the end once I'd got the proxy configuration set at both ends (the transfer involves an index file push and then a data file pull) I had to work out that I needed to use Gold-Menu to pull up the option to actually perform the transfer. Took me four hours to transfer a set of files from one box to another mind - hardly and efficient process! Regards, Mark.

Any help gratefully appreciated. Thanks, Mark. Not sure, but ADD/PROXY SLAVE::allin1 A1$XFER_OUT/DEF may help. Bizarrely (and I'm sure Steve Davidson will have something to say about this) the instructions are telling you to set up the proxy the wrong way round. When I added the proxy on the target system back to the system doing the copying it worked fine. ... onto the next step... Regards, Mark. Mark, Are you all set with this? -Steve

Proxy access is all completely new to me unfortunately! I think you're working now, but I figured I could add some comments on proxy access, which might help you and others. Proxy access is essentially a way for you to specify that a specific user, from a specific machine, should get access rights as a specific other user on the local machine if they do not specify any user information. As a good example, here is the proxy definitions on MIM:: PROXY>list Remote User Local Account ----------- ------------- *::* DECNET (DEFAULT) ERNIE::BILLQUIST BILLQUIST MAGICA::* * (DEFAULT) MIM::* * (DEFAULT) PONDUS::BILLQUIST BILLQUIST STARS2::DAVIDSON DAVIDSON PROXY> So, anyone on HECnet, with any username, will by default access MIM:: as the user DECNET. (This is because under RSX, there is no default DECnet account, so I implemented the same through proxy, which works if both sides have enabled proxy) Next line is that BILLQUIST (me) on node ERNIE:: will have access on MIM as user BILLQUIST (well, ok, that is also me). This means I don't have to enter username and passwords on ERNIE when I want to access my stuff on MIM. Next. Anyone from MAGICA:: will have access on MIM:: with the same username. Since the username databases are (supposedly) synced between MIM and MAGICA, this is a nice thing to do, so people don't have to enter passwords all over the place. They expect to be able to access their files on MIM without hassle, if they are logged in to MAGICA. Next, anyone on MIM:: can connect to MIM::, getting access with the name he have. Essentially, you can access your own stuff on MIM, even if you go over DECnet, with the correct rights. Then I also have an entry for me from PONDUS:: to MIM::. Same deal as from ERNIE. Last is an entry I have for DAVIDSON. I don't remember exactly why I set that one up, but it just allows him to access files on MIM from STARS2, without having to pass credentials. I hope this will make people understand a little better what proxy is, and how it can be used.
