Good evening:
I fetched NEWSRDR off of one of the Freeware distribution sites, and after configuring things, settings up logicals, etc ... an attempt to run NEWSRDR results in:
%NEWS-I-UPDATING, locating unread articles; please wait...
%NEWS-E-UNEXPRSP, unexpected response from server: "480 Authentication Required"
Does anyone have experience with setting up NEWSRDR to authenticate to my ISP's mail server, or is there a client out there for OpenVMS that supports this? This error message suggests that NEWSRDR does not.
Apologies if this is slightly off topic, but there's far less noise here than comp.os.vms - plus I don't have to wear my "asbestos underwear" here.
Cheers,
Fred

such an oddity.
What is supposed to be the "oddity" about it?

DECnet was originally developed on RSX-11 (Phase I) and DECnet as of Phase IV
still runs on RSX-11. RSX-11 Cannot run Phase V, however.

I just rescued a pair of VAX 4000/500 boxes which I plan on setting up as
a cluster once I get the second node online (right now only the one is
running, need to find some stuff to get the second one online) and I thought
that I should really get linked back into HECnet.
Just thought I'd say Hi and let you all know what's going on.
Howdy.
Peace... Sridhar

Just wanted to share the photos.
I was at The Alternate Party with 20 VaxStations/Microvaxen.
Young people were more interested about playing Tetris but some
old-timers also had interest for the cluster.

I have finally managed to get my rx2600 running, it's accesible on HECnet with the host name RHESUS (1.403).
It's a dual Itanium 900MHz, 8 GB of RAM, one 146 GB disk running OpenVMS 8.3-1H1. Let me know if you want an
account, esp. for stuff like porting software across to IA64.
Very nice! I'm quite envious, 8.3-1H1 is Itanium only, which means the Alpha doesn't have iSCSI support yet. I'd love to know if you can use iSCSI on a system running 8.3-1H1 to connect to a box running FreeNAS.

Oh yeah, my bad.
Sorry, the box wasnt running at the time so I never got around to downloading it. Well, C down, the rest to go :)
