What kind of decserver is it?
If it is a DS100, 200 or 300 then you need the appropriate load file mumble.SYS and a boot host that runs decnet. For NCP I can give you the incantations.

Guys,
Back for ages my DECSERVER used to boot up using someone's MOP box in Sweden I believe;
This is no longer the case, and this being my only console access to RHESUS i would appreciate some instructions on how to set up this soft-downline-loading setup (and possibly the necessary binaries).

188.220.63.6 is what I have.

Subject: [HECnet] Weird question: Does anybody chow the external IP address
on GORVAX?
Had to replace my router today and lost a lot of port forwarding data with
it.
Anyway, if anyone who regularly connects to GORVAX (say for multinet), I
would appreciate the info

Hi,
Area 44 has grown two new nodes:
44.43. OZON. (DS10 / VMS 8.3)
44.35 TITAAN (DS20E / VMS 8.3)

Bob,
I've have had no luck with idle on either simh or klh10 (for TOPS20). I'd planned to post to alt.sys.pdp10 but hadn't gotten around to it yet. If you run across anything, I'd be interested. I may experiment a bit this weekend if I get the time.

I set up a TOPS20 system with simh (simh v3.8.1 on Ubuntu, TOPS20 v4.1
clean install). The installation went fine with no problems, but I cannot
get the idle detection feature in simh to work. I say -
pdp10
sim> att rp0 tops20-4.1.rp06
sim> set cpu tops20
sim> set cpu idle tops20
sim> show cpu
CPU, idle enabled, stability wait = 20s, 1048KW, TOPS-20
sim> b rp
....
Everything boots and runs fine, but simh uses about 98% of the host CPU and
never goes down. In an hour of wall clock time the pdp10 process uses about
58+ minutes of CPU time. Clearly the idle detection isn't working for me.
I did try posting this question on the simh list, but got no comments so I
guess nobody there is using TOPS20. And yes, I could use KLH10, but AFAIK
KLH10 has no idle detection feature at all.
Thanks,
Bob
Bob, perhaps posting on alt.sys.pdp10 may help.

Guys,
Being that my Mini is starting to show its age, I figured I'd move GORVAX onto something more modern.
Unfortunately that means running OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard - which means the networking went to shit.
Anyone got a copy of the SIMH VAX binary to run properly on 10.6?

I'll certainly give it a good poking once it's up.
Do you know what language it's scripted in? I'd be interested in further
developing it if I know the language as it's something STAR69 (my VAX
emulator) might come in handy for.
I am not sure what it is written in, but from the documentation I read, I am thinking C of some variant since it lists a C compiler as a requirement. I have to pull some header files from the NOTES distribution as well pull in some pieces from the OSU web server, so while it does not seem difficult, it will take a bit of time and planning.
Once I have something to test I'll email the list. NOTES is still running on MISER:: if folks with character-cell (or X) clients would like to connect.

Lets call it for what it is - "legacy" is a term that people use in a
polite but derogatory manner to imply that the future direction they
prefer is not that which they view as the current direction.
