What DEC created operating systems support the networking protocol used?

Hi. Gregg Levine wrote: Hello! I've managed to track down several examples of the RSTS family of operating systems from DEC. Would any of you have any clew as to which member specifically spoke the networking protocol that we use here to communicate within the whole business? These were of course for the PDP-11. I think that it was less than a week since Paul Konig said that DECnet phsse IV came in V9, or if it even was V10 of RSTS/E. Ie. very new versions only.

To get the same level of service I had with my ISP and DSL, I'm stuck paying more than twice as much, plus I still have an account with my ISP to keep my email. Given the choice, I would much rather have my old slow DSL. Zane

PDXVAX and MONK online

by marc＠bluevine.net

I'm now sitting on a 20Mbit/5Mbit Commercial FIOS line, so I have more bandwidth than I know what to do with. I am noticing that DECnet performance seems drastically improved. Ain't FiOS grand? I've had FiOS here for about a year and a half and have loved it. I'd love to upgrade to their next higher tier that they have available (25 Mbps/15 Mbps) for just $10/month more, but since I have 5 IP addresses that I'm somehow getting for free now, if I were to upgrade I'd have to start paying for them as well making it quite not as attractive. --Marc

PDXVAX and MONK online

by healyzh＠aracnet.com

I'm happy to report that PDXVAX and MONK are *FINALLY* back online, after being down for a few days short of a year. I'm not sure if I'll be able to stay online all the time for the next month, but will try, it will depend on if we get another heat wave or not since I don't have any cooling for the computers. Things aren't totally back to normal, www.avanthar.com still points to my .Mac account, as I need to find time to move some data back to my own server. However, http://aracnet.com:8080/nodes/ is working at the moment to generate a list of what's currently online on HECnet. Since it shows CODA as a VAXstation 90A, I'm pretty sure my data file that lists machine types and offered services needs updated. :-) I'm now sitting on a 20Mbit/5Mbit Commercial FIOS line, so I have more bandwidth than I know what to do with. I am noticing that DECnet performance seems drastically improved. Zane -- | Zane H.

SWXCR utility for OpenVMS 8.3

Ah I think I do actually. I'll have a look later, thanks.

SWXCR utility for OpenVMS 8.3

by marc＠bluevine.net

Any of you happen to have a copy of the SWXCR software for VMS 8.3? I've got two boxes with Mylex RAID controllers and would like to monitor them from VMS. I've got them, I think. I found these two PCSI files: DEC-AXPVMS-SWXCR-V0300--1.PCSI;1 DEC-AXPVMS-SWXCR_E-V0102--3.PCSI;1 I don't know what each one is, but I know I used these on my Alpha system that I used to have. Unfortunately, these are on my emulated system and I'm not quite sure how to get them from there to somewhere in the "real" world. I'll write to you privately when I figure that out. --Marc
