Bob seems to be down, so I'm not bridging the two groups.
Bob is down? Why do you think that?
Right now, I have Multinet connections to SELENE, DUSTY and STUPI. Looks
like the links to ZARQON and PDXVAX are down which, from what you've said,
is not really a surprise.
Unfortunately I don't run Johnny's bridge program. I did briefly a couple
of years ago, but I didn't want to keep another machine running 24x7 just
for that purpose.

It's too hot for me to run a VAX in my office at the moment so I've shut zarqon down for a while, sorry.
Knowing the British weather, I'm sure it will cool down again and I'll be able to power it back up fairly soon ;-)
Hi Chrissie,
I know how that goes. I really wish I had a dedicated computer room with air conditioning. At some point PDXVAX will have to go down as well. In fact we're supposed to hit 88F next Friday, hopefully this isn't a sign it will get hot early this year. Of course recently we had 75-80F one Saturday and snow the next.
Was your VAX routing any Multinet sites? Bob seems to be down, so I'm not bridging the two groups.

Hello to everyone!
Does anyone here have a PDF or Postscript copy of the latest VAX Fortran 77
language reference manual and user manual to share? They should be AA-PU45C-TK
and AA-PUYPA-TE, respectively. HP site has only manuals about the newest HP
Fortran 90/95 compiler for Alpha and IA64, but they completely forgot VAX...
A throughout search of the whole WWW returned nothing suitable for printing. I
would accept DSR files too, because I can convert them to Postscript and PDF.
I'm sorry for the off topic question, but after asking for those manuals to
almost anyone I know, this message is one of my last attempts at finding them.
Thank you very much,
G. (Not English native, hope my English is good enough)
$ RESTORE/REPLACE/ACCOUNT//END=NODISMOUNT indev:[1,2]AUT101.A AUTOIN$:*.*
$ @AUTOIN$:AUTOIN.COM
$ $AUTOIN$:AUTOIN.COM indev:F77
Thanks - that worked! I probably wouldn't have guessed that one myself
:-)

If it were to use TCP, things would be a lot easier in this regard.
However, with UDP, you need to set things up more explicitly, since the
incoming and outgoing traffic isn't really related from the UDP protocol
point of view. UDP don't have the concept of a connection.

Ok, I guess it would be best to use the bridge program. I should be
able to get a port forwarded to my laptop; I'll have to look a little
deeper to see what I need to do to get the laptop to re-forward that
port on to the Alpha (should just be an iptables command, I hope,
which I could add to the current gateway setup script).
Johnny, since nobody else has offerred to be the other end of my
tunnel, I guess I'll be making the hop to Uppsala.
Alright. Let's go with that for now.
Let me know when you want to experiment with this. We might as well take it off list...

Does anybody know the procedure for installing F77 v5.4 on RSTS/E 10.1?
@[0,1]INSTAL doesn't seem to work for that. There's a F77 v5.2 manual on
Bitsavers, but the RUN $BUILD procedure that it recommends also doesn't seem
to work for F77 v5.4.
V5.4 uses Auto-Install. If V1.1 or higher haven't been installed on your system, you need to do that first.
$ RESTORE/REPLACE/ACCOUNT//END=NODISMOUNT indev:[1,2]AUT101.A AUTOIN$:*.*
To invoke Auto-Install:
$ @AUTOIN$:AUTOIN.COM
(optionally)
$ @AUTOIN$:AUTOIN.COM F77 or
$ $AUTOIN$:AUTOIN.COM indev:F77

Thanks, I'd appreciate it. A long time ago I used RSX and VMS a lot, but
I've never touched RSTS until now so I know almost nothing.
I think the RSX manuals also holds how to install on RSTS/E.
At least in the case of F77 v5.2, there is only one installation manual -
it has chapters for RSX, RSTS and IAS.
Ok. In that case we should be good, since I have the 5.4 manuals.
